The Australian Open 2025 has now reached its end. Day 15 of the Grand Slam tournament saw the men's singles semifinal match. While the one semifinal match ended on a heartbreaking note, the other semifinal saw a thrilling contest. Novak Djokovic's quest for a record 25th grand slam ended on a heartbreaking note after he retired from his semifinal match against the world No. 2, Alexander Zverev, due to a left leg injury. Both the star tennis players had been neck-and-neck through much of the first set. The Serbian legend had been facing struggles with his left leg throughout the match. Despite having issues, Novak Djokovic went into a first-set tiebreaker where he eventually lost 7-6 (5) after a fighting one hour and 21 minutes. After that, both players shook hands, and Djokovic waved to the crowd and walked off the court. Novak Djokovic Reacts After Injury Leads to His Exit From Australian Open 2025, Says 'Tried To Recover for Today's Match But…' (See Post).
