Australian Open 2024: Djokovic survives test but Jabeur, Wozniacki derailed

Firstpost  

Novak Djokovic survived a huge test Wednesday to stay on track at the Australian Open but sixth seed Ons Jabeur and former champion Caroline Wozniacki fell victim to exciting young Russians. “Hopefully I can find a way to build on this as the tournament progresses.” The hard-earned win put him into a showdown next with Argentine Tomas Martin Etcheverry, who ended Andy Murray’s tournament. “I just try to focus on myself and fight for every point.” Best ever Mirra Andreeva convincingly beat Ons Jabeur in the second round of the Australian Open. Last year’s beaten finalist Stefanos Tsitsipas also survived, but needed four tense sets to get past Australian Jordan Thompson in a match in which he said “the adrenaline and the rush was insane”.
