Tennis season is back...
It's the time for the first grand slam of the year, scheduled to take place between January 19 to February 1.

Australian Open is a hard court event, in which the winner gets 2000 points for both men and women singles category and also a whooping $3,100,000 prize money.

Stanislas Wawrinka of Switzerland is the defending champion of the men's category, in which he defeated Rafa Nadal in the finals to claim his first grand slam title.

China Li Na won the women's title last year, but the chinese later that year announced her retirement, which definitely means a new champion for the women's category.

The top seeds for both categories have been announced for Australian Open 2015, which will start next week.

Men
1. Novak Djokovic
2. Roger Federer
3. Rafa Nadal
4. Stanislas Wawrinka
5. Kei Nishikori
6. Andy Murray
7. Tomas Berdych
8. Milos Raonic
9. David Ferrer
10. Grigor Dimitrov

Women
1. Serena Williams
2. Maria Sharapova
3. Simona Halep
4. Petra Kvitova
5. Ana Ivanovic
6. Aga Radwanska

8. Carolina Wozniacki
9. Angelique Kerber
10. Ekaterina Makarova.
