Has Novak Djokovic ever lost an Australian Open final? Looking back at the Serb's previous summit clashes at Melbourne Park

Novak Djokovic has an imperious record at the Australian Open, winning 82 of his 90 matches, including nine titles. More impressively, he's a perfect 9-0 in finals, as well as semifinals, at the first Grand Slam of the year.

The Serb won his ninth title at Melbourne Park two years ago, beating Daniil Medvedev in the title match, having won his first title in 2008 (beating Jo-Wilfried Tsonga).

On that note, here's a look at how the World No. 4 has fared in Australian Open finals over the years:
