The SINGLE most important stat for the AO Final EDIT: I was right
I'll keep it simple. Federer v. Murray today for the Australian Open Title. Here's Federer's 1st serve percentage in all 4 of Major Finals he played in last year. This is via ATPworldtour.com match stats.
Federer 1st Serve % Last Year
Australian Open- 51% & 6 Double Faults (Sure it was 260 minutes, but 6 is still a lot for Fed) L
French Open - 65% W
Wimbledon - 64% W
US Open - 51% & 11 ( ! ) Double Faults L
If Federer serves well, Federer will win. If not.....
UPDATE: I was right. Fed serves at 66% and won.
