I should have closed the match at 5-4. The conditions are very challenging for all players, and I was just trying to stay on the court. I’m glad to overcome this obstacle.<\/p>Novak Djokovic<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nIn the next phase, Djokovic will face Valentin Vacherot, ranked 204th in the world ranking, who surprised by defeating Holger Rune.\n\nVacherot achieved an impressive victory against Rune with a score of 2-6, 7-6 (4), 6-4, securing his place in the semifinals and becoming the second semifinalist with the lowest ranking in Masters 1000 events in the last 35 years, according to the ATP.\n\n\n
