Coming back in the second set, Djokovic was ruthless going 6-1 up and winning eight of his last nine games. With just one set away from reaching his tenth final, he won it convincingly 6-2.
His win means the Serb has never lost a semifinal or a final in Melbourne, and it's his 33rd Grand Slam final, improving his all-time record and moving to joint second alongside Serena Williams but behind Chis Evert (34).

Also, Djokovic now has the longest men's singles main draw winning streak at the Australian Open in the Open Era (27 matches since 2019), eclipsing Andre Agassi's 26 matches between 2000 and 2004.
