Djokovic Crushes Nadal to Win 7th Australian Open

Novak Djokovic

World number one, Novak Djokovic, cemented his position as one of the best ever to play the game of tennis.  In Melbourne on Sunday, Djokovic claimed the Australian Open 2019 title in straight sets against Rafael Nadal in a flawless performance, winning the tournament  6-3, 6-2, 6-3.

Djokovic needed just those three sets (6-3, 6-2, 6-3) to best second seed Nadal in a relentless performance in which he rarely yielded control to the Spaniard.  The match lasted just two hours and four minutes.

Nadal had 28 unforced errors through three sets. Nadal was simply no match for the Serb who has now claimed seven Australian Open titles since 2008.
