Australian Open: Novak Djokovic trashes Zverev to reach semi-finals


Novak Djokovic now in Semi-Finals after trashing Alexander Zverev in the Australian Open.

Djokovic destroyed Zverev 3-1 in the 3rd set, after he and Zverev split the opening two sets, and it was one of a number of moments when the Serbian showed heightened volatility during a 6-7 (6-8) 6-2 6-4 7-6 (8-6) win. 

Djokovic will now face Russian qualifier Aslan Karatsev for a place in the final. 

"Emotionally I feel a little bit drained. We pushed each other to the limit," Djokovic said in his on-court interview. 

"Other than in the second set I started pretty poorly in all the other three sets. 

"I lost my service very early in the first, third and fourth and allowed him to swing through the ball a bit more, but I regained my focus."
