Novak Djokovic battled through injury to survive a comeback by Taylor Fritz in the third round of the Australian Open, triumphing 7-6 6-4 3-6 4-6 6-2.
Crowds were told to leave the stadium as the match carried on past midnight and Melbourne's five-day lockdown came into force. While the 33-year-old Djokovic had enough in the tank to defeat world No. 31 Fritz, the world No. 1 admitted after the match that he may not be able to recover from the abdominal injury he sustained before facing Milos Raonic in the next round on Sunday.More Related News
