Australian Open 2023 Winners: Complete list of men's and women's singles and doubles champions
The Australian Open had its fair share of thrills, spills and upsets over the course of an eventful fortnight at Melbourne Park.
The first Grand Slam of the year saw the top two seeds in both men's singles and women's singles fail to reach the last eight. While men's top seed and defending champion Rafael Nadal fell in the second round, women's top seed Iga Swiatek lost in the fourth.
17-year-old Czech Linda Fruhvirtova made a dream run to the last 16, as did China's Zhu Lin, who toppled two seeds along the way. Another Czech youngster, Jiri Lehecka, slayed three seeds to reach the last eight before losing to eventual finalist Stefanos Tsitsipas.
American tennis saw a resurgence of sorts in both singles events. While Tommy Paul reached a maiden Grand Slam semifinal (lost to Novak Djokovic), women's third seed Jessica Pegula reached the last eight in singles and the semifinals in women's doubles.
The winner's podium saw the return of a few familiar faces and the emergence of a few new ones.

On that note, here's a look at the winners across all categories at the 2023 Australian Open:
Australian Open 2023 Men's Singles winner - Novak Djokovic
Some things are inevitable, like Novak Djokovic at the Australian Open. Returning to the event after a year's absence due to deportation following his medical exemption controversy, the Serb was a man on a mission.
Playing through the pain barrier and braving an injury-plagued build-up, Djokovic dropped only one set all fortnight. In a rematch of his 2021 Roland Garros final against Stefanos Tsitsipas, the Serb triumphed in straight sets to register his 10th Australian Open and record-equalling 22nd Grand Slam title.
Fantastic fortnight for these two 👏

The fifth-ranked Serb will return to No. 1 on Monday, recording the biggest jump to the top of the rankings in ATP history.
Australian Open 2023 Women's Singles winner - Aryna Sabalenka
Aryna Sabalenka was the last woman standing in the women's draw, beating reigning Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina in one of the best ladies' singles Grand Slam finals in recent memory.
Sabalenka dropped her only set of the fortnight in the final, but recovered to win the next two for the loss of seven games to make her Grand Slam breakthrough. She is the 59th different player to win a women's singles Grand Slam in the Open Era and the 29th different one to do so at Melbourne Park.
This is your moment, @SabalenkaA 🙌
