.The Australian Open came to an end earlier today with a stunning smackdown of Andy Murray by Novak Djokovic in straight sets. Murray looked mentally absent for most of the match, and in the end, it wasn't even close.
.
This is Djokovic's second Grand Slam win; he won his first in 2008, also at The Aussie Open.

Djokovic is hoping to finally shake-off that long-time #3 World Ranking and move into the Top Two, but it's going to be tough. So dominant have Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal been in tennis in the past decade that this final today marked only the seventh Grand Slam final since 2002, (33 championships), that had neither Roger Federer or Rafael Nadal as a competitor. And Djokovic is now only the first man since Lleyton Hewitt in 2002, other than Federer or Nadal, to win more than one Grand Slam title.
