#3 Roger Federer vs Rafael Nadal (2017)
The most memorable Grand Slams in recent memory has to be the Australian Open of 2017. It was a throwback to the 2009 Australian Open with the same two men (now over 30 years of age) competing in the final once again. Both Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer had a forgettable 2016 season and as a result, both were losing ground to Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray. Federer, in fact, entered the tournament as the 17th seed while Nadal was seeded 9th.
Both of them had a difficult path to the finals. Federer had to beat Kei Nishikori and Stan Wawrinka in two tough 5-set contests. Nadal had to save numerous break points and set points against Grigor Dimitrov in his semi-final win over the Bulgarian.
The stage was set for a fairytale finish. Federer took the match 6-4, 3-6, 6-1, 3-6, 6-3 in three hours and 37 minutes to become the first man to win 5 or more Grand Slams trophies in 3 or more Grand Slam tournaments. Federer needed a medical timeout in the 5th set and was facing two break points on his own serve before bailing himself out of the situation to win his 18th Grand Slam crown.
