MELBOURNE - Serbia's Novak Djokovic, the world number one in men's tennis singles, is through to the Australian Open semi-finals after a 7-6 (7-3), 4-6, 6-2, 6-3 win over American Taylor Fritz in Melbourne on Tuesday.

Djokovic, who won after three hours and 45 minutes of play, is now 9-0 head-to-head against Fritz.

Stefanos Tsitsipas said he hoped to emerge stronger from his fourth-round defeat by Taylor Fritz at the Australian Open on Sunday after the Greek world number seven suffered his earliest exit in four years at the Melbourne Park Grand Slam.

Stefanos Tsitsipas hopes to tap into "big moments" from his 2023 Australian Open campaign to fuel his quest to reach back-to-back finals, the Greek seventh seed said after easing past Frenchman Luca Van Assche to reach the fourth round on Friday.

No 7 Stefanos Tsitsipas of Greece plays a forehand return to Luca Van Assche of France during their third round match at the Australian Open tennis championships at Melbourne Park, Melbourne, Friday. Tsitsipas beat the #NextGen ATP Frenchman 6-3, 6-0, 6-4, his first straight-sets win of this fortnight. He will meet No 12 Taylor Fritz, who defeated Fabian Morozsan 3-6, 6-4, 6-2, 6-2.

Stefanos Tsitsipas withdrew from the ATP Finals with a back injury on Tuesday after playing only three games of his second match in Turin, handing Holger Rune the victory.

Tsitsipas, the 2019 champion, was trailing 2-1 in the opening set when he had a lengthy conversation with his trainer before slowly getting to his feet, shaking his head and walking over to shake Rune's hand.

World no.1 kept that epithet despite not playing in the tournaments in Vienna and Basel in the previous weeks.
Djokovic remained at 11,045 points, 2,420 more than second-placed Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz (8,625), who also did not play in the aforementioned tournaments due to injury.
