Novak Djokovic set another grand slam record as he battled through to the third round of the Australian Open.
The 37-year-old’s 6-1 6-7 (4) 6-3 6-2 victory over Portuguese qualifier Jaime Faria was his 430th match at a slam, taking him past the mark previously held by Roger Federer.
He will not look back too fondly on this match, with Djokovic pushed by 21-year-old Faria, who is ranked down at 125.
Coach Murray absolutely loving it
