MELBOURNE, Australia - The opening Grand Slam tournament of the year ended Sunday with Novak Djokovic winning his fifth Australian Open title and denying Andy Murray his first.Outside of a few days when the temperatures topped 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit) in the first week, the searing hot temperatures that can often affect play at the tournament were not an issue this year.It was also two weeks of record attendance — 703,899, breaking the previous mark of 686,006 in 2012 — due in part to a new roof on Margaret Court Arena, giving Melbourne Park three stadiums with retractable roofs.Here are some things we learned from the 103rd edition of the Australian Open:___TOUGH AT THE TOP: Novak Djokovic and Serena Williams extended their impressive records in finals at the Australian Open, where the No. 1 seeds in the mens and womens draws clinched the titles. Williams has won all six singles finals she has contested at the Australian Open, and Djokovic maintained his 100 per cent record in five finals. It was another disappointment Down Under for Murray, who has lost four Australian Open finals in six years, including three defeats to Djokovic.____BIG FOUR RESTORED: Andy Murray moved into fourth place in the ATP rankings, despite his loss to Djokovic in the final, restoring the so-called Big Four. Djokovic remains at No. 1, followed by Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. Thats a combined total of 41 Grand Slam singles titles — Federer has 17, Nadal 14, Djokovic eight and Murray two. The men frequently touted as challenging the Big Four for Grand Slam titles in the future will have to wait for another major — U.S. Open finalist Kei Nishikori and Wimbledon semifinalist Milos Raonic lost in the quarterfinals and Grigor Dimitrov went out in the fourth round.____SERENA VS. SHARAPOVA: Maria Sharapova lost her 16th consecutive match to Serena Williams, who won her 19th Grand Slam singles title in the straight-sets Australian Open final to move closer to Steffi Grafs Open-era total of 22. No. 2-ranked Sharapova was gracious in defeat. I havent beaten her in a long time but I love every time I step on the court with her, said Sharapova, who trails 17-2 in career head-to-heads and hasnt beaten Williams since 2004. Ive had some of the best memories of my career on this court and also some of my toughest losses, but thats the life of a tennis player. Her best memory of any match against Williams was her first major — Wimbledon in 2004 — when she beat the American in straight sets in only their second career meeting.___KEYS AND THE AMERICANS: Madison Keys, a 19-year-old rising star, had a breakthrough tournament, beating Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova in the third round and fellow Americans Madison Brengle and Venus Williams in the fourth round and quarterfinals before losing to Serena Williams in the semis. Four American women reached the round of 16, a good start for the U.S. contingent in the first major of the year, particularly the return to the quarterfinals of Venus Williams after an energy-sapping illness affected her play for more than four years.___THE CONTROVERSIES: An on-court presenter asked 20-year-old Eugenie Bouchard of Canada to give us a twirl, to show off her dress, which soon became known as Twirlgate. Andy Murrays fiancée Kim Sears mouthing obscenities from the player box during the Scotsmans fiery win over Tomas Berdych (who hired Murrays former coach) in the semifinals. At Sundays final, Sears poked fun at herself by wearing a t-shirt which said: Parental Advisory Explicit Content. And she appeared to behave herself, unlike two political protesters who were arrested after a court invasion during the mens final. Play was delayed in the second set after a protester was grabbed by a security guard at the back of the court. Organizers said police were expected to lay charges Monday.___MAJOR MARTINA: Martina Hingis won her first Grand Slam singles title at the Australian Open in 1997, and the 34-year-old Swiss player added her 16th of all varieties when she combined with Indias Leander Paes to take the mixed doubles title at Melbourne Park on Sunday. Hingis, who won the 1997 Wimbledon and U.S. Open singles titles, also won the Australian Open in 1998 and 1999 for a trio of singles titles at Melbourne Park. She has nine Grand Slam womens doubles titles, including four in Australia, where she has now won the mixed doubles twice. I never thought I would be standing here nearly 20 years later, Hingis said during the trophy presentations. Cleveland Browns Greedy Williams Jersey .

All-Star centre fielder Mike Trout and the rest of the Angels quickly followed his lead, and Los Angeles went on to a 15-6 rout over the freefalling Texas Rangers on Thursday night. "Oh yeah we were having fun," said Trout, the No. 2 hitter behind Calhoun who had a three-run homer among his four hits. "We always have fun, we know what this offence is capable of doing." The first four Angels batters in the game had hits and scored. They added six more runs in the second and were already up 13-2 against Colby Lewis (6-6) when Trout hit his 21st homer with one out in the third. "Those are the days you play for in organized sports, especially in baseball, when everybodys contributing, everybodys having fun, everybodys getting hits," said Josh Hamilton, the 2010 AL MVP with Texas who had RBI doubles in each of the first two innings. "Its a fun thing to be a part of." While the Angels won for the seventh time in eight games, Texas has lost five straight and 19 of 22. The Rangers (38-54) have the worst winning percentage in the majors at .413. The Rangers clubhouse remained closed for about 30 minutes after the game. Manager Ron Washington refused to reveal what he said to his team, but gave some insight into what he expects from his players. "That you dont stop fighting. You dont give into adversity. The game of baseball is full of it. You dont give in to it," he said. "The only people that can make a change and make a difference is my guys. " Hector Santiago (1-7) struck out eight in six innings. The left-hander allowed four runs and five hits. Lewis allowed a club-record 13 runs in only 2 1-3 innings. He also gave up a career-worst 13 hits in his 130th major league start, while his ERA increased by more than a full run -- from 5.51 to 6.54 -- afteer 11 earned runs were changed against him.dddddddddddd. Calhoun, who had four hits and scored four times, was only a homer shy of a cycle after hits in each of the first three innings. He admittedly "100 per cent" was trying to go deep his last two at-bats in a lopsided game, but grounded out and had another single. "I was definitely pulling for it," Trout said. "It was fun to watch." Calhoun pulled another ball down the right-field line for an RBI double in the second. Trout then drove in a run on a chopper for an infield hit before Albert Pujols had a sacrifice fly -- though he reached base when right fielder Alex Rios dropped the ball on the warning track for an error. Hamilton then had the second of his three doubles in the game. Erick Aybar, added to the AL All-Star team Thursday, also had RBIs in each of the first two innings. He drove in a run with a groundout in the first and had an RBI single in the second. Rangers rookie outfielder Jake Smolinski, who made his major league debut as a pinch-hitter Monday, had three hits, drove in three runs and scored twice. He has hits in all three of his starts and is the first Rangers player ever with eight hits in his first four games. NOTES: The Angels had lost eight consecutive games at Texas. ... RHP Matt West became the third player to make his major league debut this week for the Rangers. He had two scoreless innings in relief and was the 28th pitcher used this season by Texas, breaking a tie with the Angels for the most in the majors.
