Djokovic, Federer set for blockbuster semi-final

MELBOURNE: Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer face off in a blockbuster semi-final on Thursday in their 45th career meeting.
The two giants of the men's game have an intense rivalry which is delicately poised, with each beating the other 22 times.
But Djokovic has the clear edge after an astonishing 2015 season in which he fell only one win short of a calendar-year Grand Slam.
"Any round (against Federer) feels like a final because of the fact that we are big rivals," Djokovic, who is angling for a sixth Australian title, said ahead of the night match on Rod Laver Arena.
"We have played so many times against each other. There's a lot of tension. There's a lot at stake. I'm expecting a great fight."
Federer is 34 but remains at the top of his game and is desperate to add to his 17 Grand Slam titles, an achievement he still thinks is possible.
"It's part of the reason why I'm still playing. I feel like I'm competitive at the top," he said. – AFP
