Novak Djokovic Secures 90th US Open Win as Laslo Djere Retires

Posted : 29 August 2024

Defending champion Novak Djokovic notched his 90th US Open victory on Wednesday, advancing to the third round after his Serbian compatriot Laslo Djere retired in the third set. Djokovic was leading 6-4, 6-4, 2-0 when Djere, who had already received medical treatment for an injury, decided to withdraw from the match. This win further solidifies Djokovic's remarkable career at the US Open, where he has previously claimed four titles and is now aiming for a record 25th Grand Slam.

 

Djokovic’s impressive achievement marks him as the only male player to have reached 90 match wins at all four Grand Slam tournaments. The match was not without its own challenges, as Djokovic also required a visit from the trainer due to a side strain after winning the first set. Despite these setbacks, Djokovic's performance remained strong, though he expressed concern for Djere, who had struggled with injuries and had a promising start in the second set.

 

Djokovic's next opponent will be Australia's Alexei Popyrin, whom he has previously defeated at the Australian Open and Wimbledon earlier this year. Popyrin, currently in excellent form after winning the Montreal Masters just before the US Open, is poised to be a tough competitor. Djokovic acknowledged Popyrin’s recent improvements and highlighted his increased consistency and reduced errors.

 

Looking ahead, Djokovic's focus will be on continuing his strong performance and navigating through the later stages of the tournament. With Popyrin showing notable progress and form, Djokovic will need to stay at the top of his game to advance further and pursue his Grand Slam aspirations.
