Nishesh Basavareddy fell to Novak Djokovic, although he can boast of taking a set from the Serbian in what has been the American's first appearance in a Grand Slam (4-6 6-3 6-4 6-2). Nishesh, at just 19 years old, explained what it means to face Djokovic on the court: "Seeing myself against him in the draw before the match was surreal, but it was a great feeling. He does everything very well on the court, he even serves well, which is what he has improved the most in his career. There is a lot to learn about his game, especially due to the solidity he possesses. I have learned a lot today."
"The main difference between him and the others, I would say, is the precision in his serving and his extremely high level in returning, I feel like I'm serving and the ball is already back at me. He makes you play an extra ball every time. Winning the first set has shown myself that I have the level to move forward in my career, although I still need to improve many things," Basavareddy concluded.
