Novak Djokovic won his 10th Australian Open title on Sunday, defeating Stefanos Tsitsipas in the final at Rod Laver Arena.
Djokovic won 6-3, 7-6 (4), 7-6 (5) to win his 22nd Grand Slam title, tying him with Rafael Nadal for the most by a man in tennis history.
Djokovic’s victory propels him back to the top of the ATP rankings.
The 35-year-old Serbian did not compete in the Australian Open a year ago after being deported from the country due to a lack of COVID-19 vaccination.
Djokovic’s winning streak at the hard-court tournament now stands at 28 matches.
Against the odds, Tsitsipas broke for the first time on Djokovic’s opening serve in set three, only to relinquish the advantage immediately after a gripping rally.
It again went to a tiebreak, where Djokovic once again raised a level to claim another title.
