Novak Djokovic charged into the Australian Open quarter-finals and booked a mouth-watering encounter with Carlos Alcaraz before the Serb shifted the focus by snubbing the Grand Slam's official broadcaster and slamming them for mocking him and his fans.

Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz picked up wins Wednesday to advance to the third round of the Australian Open.

Djokovic, like Court, won his first Slam at the Australian Open and he can end the debate definitively on his 20th visit to Melbourne as a professional. Aside from the reliable band of supporters from the local Serbian community, the veteran has rarely been the most popular player at Melbourne Park but he has always been among the best.
