   Murray led 5:4* (30/15) in the 2nd set – his third consecutive match in which he lost a set being two points away from winning it. The Scot was three points away leading 5:4 & 6:5 in the 3rd set. The match lasted 2 hours 53 minutes (14 minutes longer than their Aussie Open final five years ago)… Murray & Djokovic have faced each other five times at the Australian Open – it’s a record (three other H2Hs are consisted of four AO meetings). Djokovic winning the Australian Open for the sixth time, joins Bjorn Borg, Rafael Nadal (French Open), Pete Sampras & Roger Federer (Wimbledon) as the fifth player to win one major at least six times.

   Djokovic’s route to his 6th Australian Open title:
   1 Hyeon Chung 6-3, 6-2, 6-4
   2 Quentin Halys 6-1, 6-2, 7-6(3)

   4 Gilles Simon 6-3, 6-7(1), 6-4, 4-6, 6-3
   Q Kei Nishikori 6-3, 6-2, 6-4
   S Roger Federer 6-1, 6-2, 3-6, 6-3
   W Andy Murray 6-1, 7-5, 7-6(3)

   Their four previous matches in Melbourne (all night session):
