Djokovic reaches the French Open quarters in style

Novak Djokovic is definitely coming back.

The former world no.1 reaches the quarters at the Roland Garros after dropping just 1 set in the first 4 matches.

Nole had a very good match against the world no.35 Fernando Verdasco in the 4th round to win the contest 6-3 6-4 6-3. Djokovic was always in command against the Spaniard after grabbing an early lead in each set (4-1 3-1, and 5-1).

Why Djokovic is particularly happy.

After the match, Nole commented

“I’m just taking it one match at a time, and right now, considering I played almost four hours in my last match, I felt pretty good physically today.

I had no problems to go the distance in long rallies, and I won in the three sets against a player who is in form, especially for this surface. So that’s all positives for now.”

 

Next vs. Cecchinato

Nole will face a surprising Marco Cecchinato in the quarters. The world no.72 defeated Goffin in 4 sets in the previous round. Djokovic and Cecchinato have never played each other so far.
