The 2016 Australian Open will finally come to a close, but not before No. 1 Novak Djokovic battles No. 2 Andy Murray in the tournament final.
This will be the 31st time the top tennis stars go head to head. Djokovic holds a resounding series lead, beating his British counterpart 21 times. It should come as no surprise that Djokovic is a five-time Australian Open champion, while Murray is nothing more than a four-time runner-up.
He'll look to turn this imaginary rivalry into an actual one with a victory on Sunday.
