In summary, Federer will win in the Men's Singles and Men's Doubles, while Justine Henin will win the Women's Singles. Lisa Raymond and Samantha Stosur will win the Women's Doubles, and Hingis and Bhupathi will win the Mixed Doubles. Marcos Baghdatis will win the Men's Doubles at the Australian Open.

My predictions are,

Men: Federer (that's an obvious choice, the way he is playing)
Women: Hingis winning in her comeback grand slam tournament
Men's Doubles: The Bryan twins
Women's Doubles: Lisa Raymond/Samantha Stosur
Mixed doubles: Hingis/Bhupathi

Also, Marcos Baghdatis is on an amazing run! He first accounted for the vastly overrated Roddick and now Ljubicic as well!

Let's see how my powers of prediction turn out...

Clijsters beat Hingis 6-3 2-6 6-4. Her game was way too powerful for Hingis to cope. Oh well, let's see if Mauresmo can do any better.

Is the Australian Open Soccer or Tennis? Or Golf?

In this context, it is the annual tennis tournament.

Mauresmo will be beaten in two sets. That's a promise.
Federer had to play a five setter to beat Haas. That's been a long time he had to go this far. In the Master's final, he lost in five sets to Nalbandian, who will be his opponent in the final of this year's Australian Open. Federer will win in four sets.

Amelie Mauresmo reached the Australian Open final for a second time when Kim Clijsters was forced to retire with the Frenchwoman leading 5-7 6-2 3-2.

Hard luck really. Atleast Marlon, there is still one Belgian in the final.

Baghdatis just beat Nalbandian 3-6 5-7 6-3 6-4 6-4 to advance to his first grand slam final.

What a guy! Coming back from 2 sets down to win it. He was even down 4-2 in the final set!

Here is the action as it happened

1. What factors are considered when making tennis predictions for Grand Slams?

When making tennis predictions for Grand Slams, several factors are taken into account. These include a player's recent form, performance on different surfaces, head-to-head record against their opponent, and any injuries or fatigue that may affect their performance.

2. Can past performance be used to predict future Grand Slam winners?

Past performance can be a helpful indicator in predicting future Grand Slam winners, but it is not the only factor to consider. Players' skills and physical abilities can also improve or decline over time, and external factors such as injuries or changes in coaching can also affect their performance.

3. How accurate are tennis predictions for Grand Slams?

The accuracy of tennis predictions for Grand Slams can vary, as it is ultimately a prediction and not a guarantee. However, by considering various factors and using statistical analysis, predictions can be made with a reasonable level of accuracy.

4. Are there any unexpected factors that can affect the outcome of a Grand Slam tournament?

While many factors can be considered when making tennis predictions for Grand Slams, there are always unexpected factors that can come into play. These can include weather conditions, injuries during a match, or unexpected breakthrough performances from underdog players.

5. How do you handle uncertainty in predicting Grand Slam winners?

Uncertainty is inevitable when making predictions for any sport, including tennis. To handle this, it is important to consider a variety of factors and use statistical analysis to make an informed prediction. It is also important to acknowledge that unexpected outcomes can occur and to not rely solely on predictions for the outcome of a Grand Slam tournament.
