Tense moment between Novak Djokovic and a journalist after reaching the semifinals of the 2026 Australian Open, following Lorenzo Musetti's withdrawal. Everything happened when the Serbian was asked if he felt he was 'chasing' Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner at the moment, in the same way he used to with Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer at the beginning of his career. A comparison that the Balkan player did not like at all.

"It is disrespectful to overlook what happened between the time I started 'chasing,' as you say, Rafa and Roger, and now that I am chasing Carlos and Jannik, with probably a period of about 15 years where I dominated the Grand Slams. So, I think it's important to put that into perspective. Honestly, I don't feel like I'm chasing anyone. Roger and Rafa will always be my greatest rivals. I have immense respect for what Jannik and Carlos are doing, continue to do, and will do over the next 10, 15, or 20 years. Only God knows how many years they will play; they are very young," concluded the Belgrade native.

Carlos Alcaraz is destined to make history in tennis. He has already done so at just 22 years old, but everything seems to indicate that his name will appear more often. At the moment, he wants to write his name on the Melbourne trophy for the first time, but in the meantime, he is accumulating numbers and statistics to be remembered. After defeating Alex de Miñaur in the quarterfinals of the 2026 Australian Open, he now has 89 Grand Slam victories, making him the third tennis player in history with the most Grand Slam wins before turning 23, surpassing Björn Borg (88) and only trailing Rafael Nadal (90) and Boris Becker (91).

The four male semifinalists of the 2026 Australian Open have been the top four seeds. This, which would seem logical given the favoritism that comes with that privilege, is quite uncommon. Evidence of this is that it has only occurred 17 times in the Open Era, with the last being at Roland Garros 2019. Therefore, Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Alexander Zverev, and Novak Djokovic have made history.

Carlos Alcaraz is on fire in this Australian Open 2026. The Spaniard is on a roll and after defeating Alex de Miñaur in the quarterfinals, he advances to the semifinals in Melbourne for the first time, where he will face Alexander Zverev. However, he has achieved this in an even more challenging way, without dropping a single set. This puts him back on the list of active tennis players who have reached the semifinals of a Grand Slam without losing a set.

The player from Murcia had already done it in the past US Open, and the list includes Jannik Sinner (Australian Open 2024, Roland Garros 2025), Novak Djokovic (Australian Open 2008 and 2015, Roland Garros 2015 and 2019, Wimbledon 2013, and US Open 2012), Jack Draper (US Open 2024), Daniil Medvedev (US Open 2020), Pablo Carreño (US Open 2017), Stan Wawrinka (Roland Garros 2017), and Gaël Monfils (US Open 2016).

Carlos Alcaraz showed his best version in this Australian Open 2026, crushing Alex de Miñaur in the quarterfinals. But before focusing on his semifinal match with Alexander Zverev, he spoke with Eurosport Spain where he confessed his step forward in terms of maturity. "I feel very good, each match I have been improving and my level has been growing. My team, from the first match, asked me for patience because they knew my level would come. One of the things I have been working on is to stay calm when I need it most. I started very well, but things have turned a bit, I lost the feelings, but I remained serious all the time. I am maturing and growing, but never losing my essence," stated the world number one.

Carlos Alcaraz reaches his first semifinals of the Australian Open, after convincingly defeating Alex de Miñaur (7-5, 6-2, 6-1) and his next opponent will be Alexander Zverev. Speaking about his victory against the Australian and his upcoming match against the German, he said in the on-court interview with Jim Courier: "It's very difficult to play against him. I started very well, hitting the ball very well, but with Alex, you have to stay focused throughout the whole match, you have to win the point three or four times. Against Zverev, I'll have to raise my level, he's playing very well, and I'll have to be ready to take my revenge," said the Spaniard recalling that defeat against 'Sacha' in the quarterfinals of 2024.

Carlos Alcaraz has managed to increase the points in his ATP ranking after reaching the semifinals of the 2026 Australian Open. The Spaniard adds a whopping 400 points, now reaching 12,450 points. This will make him leave Melbourne with a significant advantage over Jannik Sinner. In the worst-case scenario for the Spaniard (elimination in the semis and Italian title), he would still have a 950-point lead. This lead would be much larger if Carlos keeps progressing and/or if Sinner loses a match in Australia.
