Djokovic's Impressive Win at Roland Garros

Novak Djokovic, the Serbian tennis legend, secured his place in the fourth round of the French Open after a dominant straight-sets victory against Austrian qualifier Filip Misolic, finishing the match with scores of 6-3, 6-4, 6-2 on Saturday evening.


This win marks Djokovic's 99th career victory at Roland Garros and his third title in Paris. Notably, he also boasts 99 wins at the Australian Open, along with a record 10 titles at the event. According to ATP Tour statistics, he has accumulated 97 titles at Wimbledon and 90 at the US Open.



Djokovic showcased his prowess during the two-hour and nine-minute match on Court Philippe-Chatrier, demonstrating fierce intensity and securing vital points to reach the round of 16 for the 16th consecutive year.


At the age of 38, Djokovic is on the hunt for his record-extending 25th Grand Slam title and has yet to drop a set in this year's French Open. His next challenge will be against Britain's Cameron Norrie, who has reached the fourth round for the first time after defeating fellow Brit Jacob Fearnley.


Djokovic holds a perfect record against Norrie, having won their last five encounters, including their most recent match at the Geneva Open just a week prior.


Before arriving in Paris, Djokovic's performance had seen a slight decline, with early exits in Monte Carlo and Madrid. However, he bounced back by clinching the ATP 250 title in Geneva, overcoming Hubert Hurkacz in the final to achieve his 100th tour-level title, dispelling any doubts ahead of the Grand Slam.


So far at Roland Garros, the world’s sixth-ranked player has comfortably defeated Mackenzie McDonald and Corentin Moutet in the opening rounds.
