Novak Djokovic says he's finally coming to terms with his semi-final loss at last month's Australian Tennis Open.

The seven time Grand Slam champion has described his loss to the Swiss Stanislas Wawrinka as one of the toughest losses of his career, but after a month off he's looking forward to the defence of his Dubai Open title in the coming week.

Djokovic says he's spent much of the last month with his family and visiting places he hasn't seen since his childhood, from which he's gained lots of positive energy.
