Victoria Azarenka was the two-time defending champion, but was defeated by Agnieszka Radwańska in the quarterfinals, thus ending her 18-match winning streak at the Australian Open.[3]

By winning her third round match, women's top seed Serena Williams broke Margaret Court's record of 60 match victories at the Australian Open.[4]

Eugenie Bouchard became the first Canadian to reach the semi-finals in the Major since Carling Bassett-Seguso in the 1984 US Open. This was her fourth Major appearance in the main draw (and the first time as a seeded player in the tournament).[5]

gollark: You use C for those mostly.
gollark: It would probably have a microcontroller in it, and those typically run C.
gollark: There's probably some way to rewrite them as a bunch of equations, say, then solve those - you know the amount of X atom/ion on the left is equal to the amount on the right, and you know the amount on the left is equal to (moles of reactant A * 3 + moles of reactant B * 2) and so on.
gollark: I think what humans do is randomly guess a bit, tweak the numbers so they match better, then infer the rest when they reach something consistent.
gollark: Oh, hmm, I'm not really sure how you would do that. Did you try looking it up on the interwebs?
