At the end of the tournament in the US, Djokovic has returned to the competition. However, the world's No. 1 player is not convincing. After being eliminated early at Monte Carlo Masters, the Serbian player recently continued to disappoint at Srpska Open 2023.
On Bosnia and Herzegovina, Djokovic started to struggle when he had to go back to the 18 -year -old Luca Vancer. Recently, the No. 1 seed has just entered the quarterfinals, with the opponent Dusan Lajovic. In 2 encounters first, Nole won. But this time, the situation has changed.
Entering Set 1, Djokovic started not good and lost the break right in game 3. Until game 8, he reclaimed the break successfully to equalize 4-4. However, the world's No. 1 player once again let Lajovic break the gaming game in Game 9, thereby receiving 4-6 defeat in this set.
Sang Set 2, Djokovic played efforts to level the score. However, Lajovic continues to show good performance in this set.
During 12 games, no player won the break, despite creating many opportunities. Therefore, they have to enter a series of tie-breaks to determine the victory. On the gun battle series, Lajovic won the 6-8 close, thereby winning the final at SST 2.
Thus, Djokovic was officially eliminated in the quarterfinals of Srpska Open this year. This is an alarming result for the world's No. 1 player when the second Grand Slam tournament is coming very close. Next week, he will participate in the next Masters 1000 tournament, Madrid Open.
