Novak Djokovic advanced firmly towards the quarterfinals of the US Open 2025. With a solid victory in three sets, the Serbian tennis player decisively defeated Jan-Lennard Struff with a final score of 6-3, 6-3, and 6-2 in 1 hour and 49 minutes of play. The sensations regarding his game are very positive, although the fact that he called the physiotherapist on a couple of occasions is somewhat concerning regarding Nole's physical condition.

Although he started energetically on his serve, Jan-Lennard struggled with Djokovic's attacks from the other side of the net, conceding from the beginning of the match. The smooth sailing turned thorny for Novak in the fifth game when, instead of going up 5-0, he gave his first break to his opponent, who gained confidence to try to narrow the margin and keep fighting for that first set, which lasted just 20 minutes.

The boost from his backhand and serve were not enough to stop a Djokovic who, right after winning the first set, was treated on the court by the physiotherapist due to discomfort in his right shoulder, allowing equality to enter the match, though not for too long.

The second set had the same fate as the first, even with a massage included for Nole, this time on the forearm and elbow of his right arm, although those feelings of pain did not affect his tennis. The Serbian dominated the match throughout, leaving no chances for a Struff who was increasingly distant on the scoreboard.

Djokovic's parallel shots made the difference, with the Serbian solid as a rock from the baseline, but also daring with slices and net approaches, all causing the number of unforced errors from the German to skyrocket. With the accelerator on his forehand, Novak hurried to confirm his victory and secure his ticket to the quarterfinals of the US Open 2025.
