Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic has had to sweat more than expected to beat a young Dino Prizmic, who came to know the current winner of the Australian Open.
After a simple first set (6-2), the Croatian knew how to put the winner of 24 Grand Slams in trouble, even going so far as to ‘steal’ the second set (6-7) and raise alarm bells in Australia.
However, Djokovic was able to redirect the situation to win the match (6-3 and 6-4) and remain undefeated in the tournament with 29 consecutive victories.
On Prizmic’s part, the 18-year-old young tennis player came to the fore with victory in the junior event at Roland Garros. After passing the preliminary phase of the tournament, the Croatian has been able to maintain the style of a world number one despite the discomfort he suffered in his left thigh from the beginning.
The tennis player from Split was able to put Djokovic in serious trouble, who felt the pressure after wasting a 2-0 lead during the third set.
To remedy this, the Serbian relied on superstition, choosing to change shirts until he found the right one to win the match.
