Novak Djokovic Vs Pedro Martinez, Australian Open Live Score: Novak Djokovic is up against Pedro Martinez in first round of the Australian Open. Djokovic, who is looking for his 25th Grand Slam, was one of the most consistent performers in Grand Slams last year, reaching the quarterfinal on all four Slams. He, however, failed to crack the Jannik Sinner test. 2026 could be the swansong for Djokovic, and he would dearly want to end up as a 25-time Grand Slam champion. Fitness, however, remains a concern for the veteran. Novak pulled out of the Adelaide International, which would have served as a preparatory tournament heading into the Australian Open, and now he enters the tournament slightly low on match practice.
Pedro Martinez recently won the title in Bangalore, but taking out Novak Djokovic in a Grand Slam would be too much to ask for Martinez, despite his decent record in Melbourne, where he won four out of the first five round matches. The match will get underway at 3:30 PM IST. Stay tuned for live updates.
