Australian Open : Women's and Mens Singles Champions 1970-2007

The Australian Open is always hugely anticipated by real tennis fans, with its long history, superb stadiums and memorable matches.

The first of the four tennis majors, it's held at the start of the tennis year and so is a benchmark for the rest of the season. The list of previous winners reads like a who's who of tennis legends: Margaret Court, Martina Navratilova, Steffi Graf, Monica Seles, Roy Emerson, Andre Agassi, Mats Wilander, ... with many other famous champions too numerous to mention.
