If we were to make a list of the most surprising defeats throughout 2024, Novak Djokovic's loss in Indian Wells could easily be topping the charts. The Serbian arrived with some doubts, which were brilliantly seized upon by an 'inoffensive' Luca Nardi, as he was dubbed beforehand. The Italian broke through the media barrier with that victory, and twelve months later, it's only natural to remember it upon returning to the scene of the triumph.
"As soon as I arrived, I felt those very good emotions again, something very pleasant. At times, I stop being Luca Nardi and become the guy who defeated Novak Djokovic. Maybe there are people who don't know my name, but they do know I was the one who beat Djokovic. Everything that happened that day was very crazy. It's incredible to think that I walked to the net knowing that I had won and he had requested, it's something you can never truly imagine," happily recalled the 21-year-old Italian on the ATP website.
