Sad to read this news.

A great player and captain.

May be going to hell in a bucket but at least I'm enjoying the ride.

Rafael Nadal beats Medvedev in epic Australian Open final for 21st slam title.

Spaniard fights back to win epic battle 2-6, 6-7 (5), 6-4, 6-4, 7-5Nadal one clear of Djokovic and Federer in all-time standings.

This despite being out of action for six months following career threatening foot injury AND recovering from COVID19 in December.

An incredible player, full of guts and determination and a really nice guy.

Congratulations Rafa πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸŽΎπŸŽΎπŸŽΎ

Sorry to see Katlie Taylor lost last night.

Didn't see the fight but some commentators on the internet are saying she deserved to win.

Any comments on that?

Whatever she's still an iconic Irish sportswoman in my eyes. An exceptional example of what can be achieved if you're determined enough.

Didnt see it Pat (on some kind of pay per view), but it was in her home town and she still lost - just about. She seemed to accept the verdict herself, so I guess its legit. Roll on the rematch!!!

I watched the fight,and was gutted that Katie lost her first professional fight on Irish soil.But her opponent is a great boxer,and I felt she was the better boxer on the night... maybe Katie should stick to her own weight division in future.

Thanks for your comments.

Read more about it since.

Seems a fair result but for Katie this is not really a loss but an example of how far she's come in the professional boxing world.

She'll always be an Irish sporting icon.

Indeed it does Sean after that amazing result.

Don't know who the other semi finalists are.
