Australian Open live: Djokovic steals iconic Federer record, Brady survives bonkers finish

Novak Djokovic's freakish run at the Australian Open means he is certain to snatch the record Roger Federer took 15 years to accomplish.

Japanese sensation Naomi Osaka, American underdog Jennifer Brady and men's world No. 1 Novak Djokovic  are all through to the final of the Australian Open after a dramatic day of matches at Melbourne Park.

Djokovic anihilated Aslan Karatsev in a straight sets  masterclass on Thursday night to move through to his ninth Aussie Open final. He has a staggering record of 17-0 beyond the quarter-finals at Melbourne Park.

Earlier Osaka was at her devastating best as she blasted Serena Williams off the court in their semi-final.

Williams remains on 23 grand slam titles, one behind Australian Margaret Court.

The American champion is the talk of the Open after an emotional goodbye to the crowd on Rod Laver Arena was followed by a press conference where she broke down in tears.
