Rafael Nadal's Uncle Toni has had plenty to say about Novak Djokovic over the years, recently questioning the Serb's injury at the Australian Open.

Novak Djokovic will face Carlos Alcaraz in a blockbuster Australian Open quarter-final! The Serb and the Spaniard defeated four rivals in Melbourne and arranged their eighth duel, the fourth at Majors. The first three came in Paris and London.

The world No. 7 spent most his career with two otherworldly rivals. He is in that situation once again, with one beaten so far in Melbourne.

Facing Sinner reminded Alexander Zverev of trying to solve the challenge presented by the 24-time major champion Djokovic.

In fact, only the Big 3 have won more matches than the Italian in his last 100 games. Sinner has 93 victories, just one less than the Spaniard's 94 and two less than the Serbian's 95. The Swiss Maestro's record is monstrous, capable of an incredible streak of 97 matches won out of 100. But Sinner is there.

Novak Djokovic will likely receive a Rafael Nadal-like accolade at Melbourne Park, as Australian Open administrator Craig Tiley has given the go-ahead to immortalize the Serb in statue form.
