    Don't rule out Novak Djokovic just yet

    Don't rule out Novak Djokovic just yet


    That's the call from the man who called last night's shock semifinal loss to Italian upstart Jannik Sinner... ending the Serb great's long reign at the Australian Open.

    The world tennis No 1 was the 10-time champion and boasted a perfect 20-from-20 record in semifinals and finals at Melbourne Park.

    Commentator Robbie Koenig points out that Djokovic won three out of the four majors last year, as well as the season-ending ATP Tour Championship... so the 36-year-old's not done just yet.



    The women's final takes place tonight from 9.30... Belarusian champ Aryna Sabalenka taking on China's Zheng Qinwen .
