Novak Djokovic has started his Australian Open title defence with a tougher than expected win.

He needed four sets to beat 18-year-old Croatian Dino Prizmic, in a match which lasted over four hours.

Jodie Burrage was unable to get the British challenge up and running, losing in three sets to Germany's Tamara Korpatsch.
