Sinner v Djokovic 2 sets all

I thought that Djoker would have fallen over by now. But then he had 2 walkover wins.

That is a surprising result. I had expected Sinner the drug cheat to beat Novax the Djoker in 3 sets. If Musetti had not injured himself, Novax was out. When I went to bed, Novax was well up in the second. But I still didn’t expect a win.

So Novax vs Alcatraz the rock, the island.

I agree.

Novak Djokovic will face Carlos Alcaraz in the Australian Open men’s singles final after beating defending champion Jannik Sinner 3-6, 6-3, 4-6, 6-4, 6-4 in four hours and nine minutes.

It was the second epic semifinal of the day after top seed Alcaraz beat third seed Alexander Zverev in the third-longest Australian Open match ever — 6-4, 7-6(5), 6-7(3), 6-7(4), 7-5 in five hours and 27 minutes — to reach his first final at Melbourne Park.

I watched the Djoker v Sinner match. Djoker player out of his skin and it went down to the wire. The first semi was apparently epic with its length and dramas around Alcatraz having a groin injury or cramping.

The semifinals of these events often produce the most gripping matches.

He’s won the first set but I expect the Knobbervic to fade away as the match progresses.

Alcaraz knocks over Djoker in 4 sets pretty much as expected.

So, Alcaraz defeats Djokovic 2-6, 6-2, 6-3, 7-5

Giving him a career grand slam

And pain and disappointment for the brilliant but divisive Djoker.
