As far as Djokovic is concerned, the Serbian tennis star's Australian Open 2024 campaign came to an end in the semifinal where Sinner got the better of him in a four-set contest winning 6-1, 6-2, 7-6, 6-3 in a match that lasted over 3 hours and 20 minutes.
"In a way [my level today] did surprise me, because I thought, it won't be that bad in the first two sets. But on the other hand, I didn't feel really myself on the court during this tournament. One can say semi-finals is a great result, but I always expect the highest of myself, and it wasn't meant to be today," Djokovic said after his defeat to Sinner in the semis as quoted by ATP Tour.
