Novak Djokovic advanced to the Australian Open semifinals under unusual circumstances on Wed, Jan 28, 2026, when Lorenzo Musetti retired hurt while leading two sets to one. Musetti, who was ahead 6-4, 6-3, 1-3, withdrew after receiving treatment for an upper right leg injury, which impaired his movement.

Djokovic will face either defending champion Jannik Sinner or American eighth seed Ben Shelton in the semifinal. This opportunity keeps Djokovic's pursuit of a record 25th Grand Slam title alive.

With this victory, Djokovic now holds the record for the most singles wins at Melbourne Park, surpassing Roger Federer with his 103rd win. This match also marks Djokovic's entry into his 54th Grand Slam semifinal.

The match presented significant challenges for Djokovic, who struggled with a high rate of unforced errors, accumulating 18 in the first set and 32 overall. Musetti's performance was strong, taking advantage of Djokovic's errors to gain a substantial lead. However, Musetti's leg injury ultimately led to his withdrawal, allowing Djokovic to progress.
