Serbian icon Novak Djokovic was full of praise for a new innovation at the Australian Open earlier this week, however, he has now U-turned on his stance.

Novak Djokovic was stunned by an unusual question he received during his on-court interview at the Australian Open. The 10-time champion at Melbourne Park stormed back from a set down to beat teenage wildcard Nishesh Basavareddy 4-6 6-3 6-4 6-2.

The 24-time Grand Slam champion is a master of easing into majors. At every one, he has a match that lifts him up. Will this one be it?

Predicting a Novak Djokovic defeat in a Grand Slam tournament has generally ended in disappointment, but the game’s ultimate winner will be under huge threat when he takes on Czechia’s Tomas Machac on Friday.

After advancing to the third round of the Australian Open, Novak Djokovic admitted that he was surprised to break Roger Federer's Grand Slam match record.
