Novak Djokovic reached a major milestone at the Australian Open by recording his 100th win at the tournament with a dominant straight-sets victory over Spain’s Pedro Martinez. The 38-year-old was in complete control, serving superbly throughout the match and barely giving his opponent a chance, as he won 6-3 6-2 6-2.
Djokovic, who is chasing a record 25th Grand Slam singles title, said he was pleased with how he started the tournament and felt his serve was key to the win. He dropped very few points on serve and finished the match with an ace, underlining his authority.
After the match, Djokovic played down the significance of the achievement, saying he will only reflect fully on his career once he retires. For now, he remains focused on staying fit and preparing for the next round, where he will continue his latest bid for history in Melbourne.
