Djokovic Starts Australian Open Title Defense with Thrilling Win Over Teen Prizmic

Novak Djokovic faced a tough challenge in his Australian Open title defense as he battled teenage talent Dino Prizmic.

The Serbian, who played his first Australian Open before Prizmic was born, initially seemed in control. However, Prizmic displayed his skills, breaking Djokovic in the second set. Djokovic had to raise his game and ultimately won the match in four sets. Prizmic, an 18-year-old qualifier, put up a strong fight, but Djokovic’s experience prevailed. Djokovic now looks ahead to his next opponent in his quest for a record 25th Grand Slam singles title.
