    Aus Open: Djokovic Beats Lehecka To Set QF Showdown With Alcaraz

    By IANS News January 19, 2025 • 17:28 PM View: 615
    Spaniard Alejandro Davidovich Fokina: Novak Djokovic brushed past 24th seed Jiri Lehecka 6-3, 6-4, 7-6(4) at the Australian Open on Sunday. The Serbian produced just 21 unforced errors in the match compared to his opponent’s 44. 

    Djokovic, who is bidding for his record-extending 25th major, took two-hour and 39-minute to seal the victory over the Czech player at the Rod Laver Arena. With this win, the Serbian great has equalled Swiss legend Roger Federer’s record of reaching 15 men’s singles quarterfinals at the hard-court major.

    Lehecka's first-set effort was undermined by a poor service game at 4-3. Djokovic made no mistake in serving out to take the set and he was quickly on the way to doubling his lead as he broke Lehecka’s serve again in the opening game of the second set.
