ANALIZA KURIRA PRED FINALE AUSTRALIJAN OPENA: Novakova pobeda nad Karlosom će biti stvar neprikosnovenog teniskog kvaliteta

Pred najvećim svih vremena je još jedna dimenzija tog superlativa – osvajanje rekordne 25. Grend Slem titule za time najstarijeg tenisera u istoriji (38 godina 255 dana) kome bi to pošlo za reketom – uz savršen skor (11-11) u finalima Australijan Opena. Mlađem šampionu trijumf donosi prvu titulu iz Australije na postojećih i ravnomerno raspoređenih 6 sa ostala 3 Slema - a time i status najmlađeg osvajača Karijernog slema u istoriji (sa 22 godine i 272 dana), devetog koji je ostvario taj podvig u istoriji tenisa. Iako će od ponedeljka Karlos ostati prvi a Novak postati treći igrač sveta bez obzira na rezultat, bolji će napustiti Melburn sa 4 miliona i 150 hiljada australijskih dolara (minus lokalni porez, posle izdataka), dok će vicešampion steći dva miliona dolara manje – i sve to od ukupnih 37 miliona i 684 hiljada dolara odvojenih u rekordni nagradni fond prvog Slema sezone.
