The world number 4 Tennis player Jannik Sinner has beaten world number 1 Novak Djokovic to reach the 2024 Australian Open final. This is the first time the 22-year-old is making it to a grand slam final.
The Italian beat the Serbian over four sets 6-1, 6-2, 6-7, 6-3, delaying the 36-year-old Djokovic from going further for his 11th Australian Open title and 25th grand slam title.
