I knew he would be aggressive. I came out with the right intensity and executed everything perfectly. The two-set lead was comforting, but it was a battle in the end. At the end of the day, it&#8217;s important that your convictions are stronger than your doubts,&rdquo; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Djokovic has won the title at Melbourne Park in four of the past five years. He lost to Stan Wawrinka in 2014.&nbsp;The 28-year-old Serb has won three of the four majors last year. He lost to Wawrinka in the Roland Garros final. The Serb is looking to add to the Australian Open titles he won in 2008, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2015.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" alignleft size-full wp-image-6685\" src=\"https:\/\/indiansportsnews.co.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/novak-djokovic_5.jpg\" alt=\"novak djokovic 5\" width=\"250\" height=\"156\" style=\"margin-right: 8px; margin-bottom: 8px; float: left;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/indiansportsnews.co.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/novak-djokovic_5.jpg 250w, https:\/\/indiansportsnews.co.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/novak-djokovic_5-150x94.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/>Melbourne:<\/strong> World No. 1 Novak Djokovic got the better of Roger Federer 6-1, 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 to cruise into his sixth Australian Open final in Melbourne on Thursday night.
