Novak Djokovic and Stefanos Tsitsipas meet at this time (Sunday) in the final of the Australian Open Championship, for the match for the first Grand Slam title of the year and also for the first place in the ATP world ranking.
The Serbian has lifted this trophy nine times before, and with the victory over the American Tommy Paul in the semi-finals, he set a record of 26 consecutive victories in the tournament, stretching back to 2018. Previously, he set another streak of 25 victories in Australia.
Although the Greek did not get to lift the trophy, today he will play in the Australian final for the first time in his career after three appearances in the semi-finals.
In the USA and Wimbledon, for comparison, there has never been a fourth round. "For me, this Grand Slam is my home!" Tsitsipas declared at the end of the victory over Karen Khachanov in the semi-finals.
