Djokovic on the court: "I would love for today's match against Alcaraz to be the final"

Novak Djokovic started with physical issues in the match but ended up finding a great level in all areas to defeat Carlos Alcaraz in four sets, earning a spot in the semifinals of the Australian Open 2025: "The first thing I want to say is that he has all my respect and admiration for all he represents and what he has achieved in his still short career. He has four Grand Slams, and I'm sure we will continue to see him, maybe not as much as I would like, that's for sure," he said jokingly. "I would love for today's match to be the final. I don't know if Sascha is still awake, if he is watching us, but it is one of the most epic matches I have ever played in my life. I don't want to talk much about my injury, but the medication started to work. I didn't know if I would continue in case of losing the second set. I saw that Carlos started to doubt from the baseline, and I started to feel better."
