Djokovic wary of dangerous Zverev in semi-final
The Straits Times
|January 24, 2025
Novak Djokovic faces Alexander Zverev in the semi-finals of the Australian Open on Jan 24, with the Serb's bid for a record 25th Grand Slam title picking up steam at just the right time.

MELBOURNE -
Djokovic, who is looking for an 11th title at Melbourne Park, showed all his battling qualities in an intense quarter-final win over Carlos Alcaraz and the 37-year-old faces another huge task to overcome second seed Zverev.
World No. 1 Jannik Sinner will also be in action when he continues his title defence against American 21st seed Ben Shelton in the night session on Rod Laver Arena.
Djokovic and Zverev have met 12 times before, with the Serb winning on eight occasions, including their latest encounter at the 2023 Cincinnati Open.
Zverev, who struggled to hit top form during two seasons disrupted by serious injury, looked back to his best in 2024, winning the Masters 1000 titles in Rome and Paris as well as finishing runner-up at the French Open.
