Grand Slam mode activated and operating at full capacity. Novak Djokovic is already in the quarterfinals after defeating Cameron Norrie 6-2 6-3 6-3, who couldn't find a way to counter the Serbian's dominance. A boost in morale and confidence for a man who is already licking his lips at the prospect of being just three victories away from glory at Roland Garros 2025.
Gone are the doubts, the predictions that his end had already come. After two weeks of Novak Djokovic performing at his best in competition, nobody in their right mind would dare to rule him out for winning the title at Roland Garros 2025. Especially after his display of power against Cameron Norrie, allowing him to enter the quarterfinals brimming with competitive rhythm and confidence to face the first major challenge of the tournament for him, trying to defeat Alexander Zverev.
There was great anticipation to see if Djokovic could assert his authority against one of his usual victims. Norrie had succumbed to the Serbian in their five previous encounters, the most recent being less than two weeks ago in Geneva, and from the start of the first set, it was clear that the version of Djokovic presented in this match was that of a big occasion. With minimal errors, a consistent rhythm from the baseline, constant depth, and smart changes in pace and direction, Novak drove the British player crazy.
- Djokovic delivered a stellar performance when most demanded, in the second set
The phase with the highest level of equality came in the second set, full of nuances that clearly demonstrate the level of concentration and solidity Djokovic has already reached. The British player tried everything, but his shots could not trouble the Serbian, who was effective in defense and lethal in his attacks. He managed to hold onto several challenging service games and eventually asserted dominance, extinguishing all hope from Norrie.
He simply switched to autopilot in the third set and sailed smoothly towards the port from which he will face the grand final challenge. Fantastic sensations, low wear, and high confidence. This summarizes the condition in which the man seeking his 25th Grand Slam title arrives at the quarterfinals of Roland Garros 2025. Novak Djokovic has a clear mission in Paris and will give his all to achieve it. He will now face Alexander Zverev.
