Novak Djokovic too strong for Alex De Minaur

The game at Rod Laver Arena was one-sided from start to finish and Nole showed once again that he feels at home in Melbourne.

The Serb’s tennis was at too high a level for De Minaur, as the Australian lacked the weapons for such a big fight.

The match lasted two hours and six minutes.
