Rafael Nadal, the 2009 champion, had the chance to become the first man since Rod Laver in 1969 to hold all four Grand Slam tournaments at once, having won the French Open, Wimbledon and U.S. Open in 2010, but was defeated in the quarter-finals against compatriot David Ferrer. Djokovic would later achieve the feat at the 2016 French Open.[1]

With his quarterfinal win over compatriot Stan Wawrinka, Federer broke Jack Crawford's record for most match wins at the Australian Open. Federer later became the first player to win 100 matches at the Australian Open, achieving that feat in 2020.

This was also the last Australian Open appearance for 2001 finalist and former Top 10 player Arnaud Clement.
