The Serb retired after a tightly contested first set in which he lost in the tiebreak. Sascha is the first finalist of the Australian Open 2025
Novak Djokovic
These are the consequences in the ATP ranking of Djokovic's withdrawal from the 2025 Australian Open
Novak Djokovic surprised the world with his retirement after the first set against Zverev in the 2025 Australian Open semifinals, a move that affects the ATP ranking. The key point is that the Serbian only manages to improve his ranking by one spot, landing in sixth place and possibly dropping to seventh if Shelton becomes champion. Therefore, if he decides to play in important tournaments soon, he won't be among the top four seeds. Meanwhile, Alexander Zverev solidifies his second-place position and surpasses 8,000 points.

These are the words of Boris Becker, someone who knows both very well. Who does he think will win the Australian Open semifinal? This is how he analyzes it.
Something broke between the Australian crowd and Novak Djokovic in 2021, and the wounds have not finished healing. What happened at this Australian Open 2025 could be another turning point, with a significant part of the audience booing the Serbian when he decided to retire and leave the court. He did not hesitate to respond ironically by looking around and raising his thumbs.
This was unbelievably poor taste from the crowd tbh.

10 times champ who probably went on court just for the crowd to watch a bit of him. Hopefully not for the last time.

Alexander Zverev asked for understanding from the people who booed Novak Djokovic, pointing out how important the Serbian is to tennis and the dedication he always demonstrates. "Please, do not boo any player, much less Novak. He has done everything imaginable for this sport, he has tried to compete despite his problems. I know you have paid for a ticket, but he has been giving everything to this sport for 20 years and won this tournament with a torn abdominal muscle. Show a little love," declared the German, who admitted not realizing that the Serbian was seriously injured. "I had to play the best set of the tournament to beat him while he was injured. He is too good," he concluded.

There are few people in the tennis world who know Novak Djokovic as well as Goran Ivanisevic. Because of this, his words in an official program of the 2025 Australian Open must be taken into account as he reveals aspects that explain the greatness of the Serbian player, and much more.
"He is a genius, a perfectionist who always wants to be at 100%. What is good today, is not tomorrow. I had to learn to always be alert, it was impressive to see how he took care of his body and prepared for each match. He is the one who has had the fewest injuries among the Big 3, and that is because of how he takes care of his body," he said before being asked if he believes Djokovic will win another Grand Slam. "Yes, of course he can. Sinner is the best in the world right now, but Novak is a lot of Novak. As long as he is on the court, I would always bet on him winning," he pointed out.
"Sinner is the favourite. He's the best player in the world at the moment. But, Novak is Novak."

Two steps away from glory, Jannik is two levels away from defending his crown. First, he faces the renewed Shelton; on the other side, Zverev and Djokovic will resolve a battle of titans.
