Serbia's Djokovic rolls into Australian Open semi-finals after crushing Russian fifth seed Andrey Rublev 6-1, 6-2, 6-4 on Rod Laver Arena and Aryna Sabalenka equally impresses as she reaches the women's last four
Djokovic has struggled with a hamstring injury in the early rounds at Melbourne Park but was dominant during his fourth-round demolition of Alex de Minaur and was equally clinical against the outclassed Rublev.
Djokovic's quest to go level with great rival Rafael Nadal on a leading 22 major titles carries an air of inevitability. Anything other than a rampant win for Djokovic against unseeded Paul would amount to a massive upset, albeit at a tournament that has seen numerous shocks in the men's and women's draws.
