Aus Open: Djokovic Crossed Alcaraz Hurdle In Bid To Win 25th Grand Slam
Rod Laver Arena: Novak Djokovic produced a statement quarterfinal win at the Australian Open, where he overcame rival Carlos Alcaraz 4-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-4 in an epic battle which lasted for three-hour, 37-minute. The Serbian is a 10-time Australian Open champion and has been a dominant force at the hard-court event since he lifted his first major in Melbourne Park in 2008.
Djokovic received a medical timeout at 4-5 in the first set and returned with his upper left leg taped but did not let the issue get the better of him. Standing in his way of an 11th Australian Open final is Alexander Zverev after the German defeated Tommy Paul in four sets earlier on Tuesday.
“I want to express my utmost respect and admiration for Carlos, everything he stands for, and what he has achieved so far in his career. What a terrific guy he is, and an even better competitor. Youngest ever No. 1 in the world, has four Grand Slams, and I’m sure we are going to see a lot of him.
