Djokovic is well aware of the challenge Kyrgios will present, as the 27-year-old currently leads the top seed 2-0 in their ATP Head2Head series.

Djokovic said, my experience at this level, playing in the finals against someone who has never played in a Grand Slam final, could work in my favour.

Djokovic said, Kyrgios is a big-match player. If you see his career, the best tennis he's played is always against the top guys.
