Novak Djokovic is the fourth semifinalist of the Australian Open men's singles tournament
.
The Serbian star, who aims to win his 22nd Grand Slam title in Melbourne, gave the Russian Andrey Rublev, No. 6 in the world, a real tennis lesson by beating him 6-1, 6-2 and 6 -4.
All this despite the fact that Djokovic accused of problems with his thigh once again today.
In the semifinals he will face the American Tommy Paul.
