Novak Djokovic advanced to his sixth Australian Open final with a 6-1 6-2 3-6 6-3 victory over Roger Federer.
The world number one dominated the first two sets, then had to hold off a spirited Federer fightback.
“I played unbelievably in the first two sets but I needed to because Roger has been playing unbelievably and I knew he would be aggressive,” Djokovic said.
It is the third straight Grand Slam in which Djokovic has defeated Federer, prolonging
the Swiss’ wait for an 18th major title.
Djokovic will face Andy Murray or Canada’s Milos Raonic in the final.
