Main article: 2019 Australian Open
Novak Djokovic defeated Rafael Nadal in the final, 6–3, 6–2, 6–3 to win the men's singles tennis title at the 2019 Australian Open. It was his record-breaking seventh Australian Open title and 15th major title overall, surpassing Pete Sampras for third place on the all-time list , behind Roger Federer and Nadal. Djokovic and Nadal were also in contention for the world No. 1 singles ranking ; Djokovic retained the top ranking by reaching the fourth round. Nadal attempted to become the first man in the Open Era to achieve a double career Grand Slam .[1]
Roger Federer was the two-time defending champion, but lost in the fourth round to Stefanos Tsitsipas . Federer's loss meant that he would drop out of the top 5 in the ATP Rankings for the first time since April 2017. Tsitsipas became the first Greek player to reach the semifinals at a major singles tournament,[2] after becoming the first man representing Greece to win a main draw singles match at the Australian Open .[3]
This was the first Australian Open since 1976 to feature a final set tie-break. Upon reaching 6–6 in the fifth set, a long tie-break is played where the winner is the first to both reach ten points and lead by two points.[4] The first men's singles main draw match to feature the ten-point tiebreak was the first round match between Jérémy Chardy and Ugo Humbert .
This tournament was expected to be the last Australian Open appearance of five-time finalist and former world No. 1 Andy Murray , who lost to Roberto Bautista Agut in the first round in five sets. Murray had previously stated his intention to retire from the sport following the 2019 Wimbledon Championships .[5] However, five months after an operation on his hip Murray returned to competitive tennis.[6]
