Melbourne – Novak Djokovic did not have the expected walk into the second round at the start of the Australian Open, which opened for the first time on a Sunday. The 36-year-old Serb was enormously challenged by the 18-year-old Croatian qualifier Dino Prizmic before he prevailed following 4:01 hours with 6:2,6:7(5),6:3,6:4. In the third set, the outsider was already leading 3-2 with a break, but Djokovic held on.
