Novak Djokovic progressed steadily towards the quarterfinals of the US Open 2025. With a solid victory in three sets, the Serbian tennis player convincingly 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 feelings regarding his game are very positive, although the fact that he called the physiotherapist on a couple of occasions raises some concerns about Nole's physical condition.
Although he started with a lot of momentum from the return, Jan-Lennard struggled with the Serbian's attacks from the other side of the court, conceding from the beginning of the match. The smooth path turned thorny for Novak in the fifth game when instead of going 5-0 up, he surrendered his first break to his opponent, who gained confidence in trying to close the gap and continue fighting for that first set, which lasted barely 20 minutes.
The boost provided by his reverse forehand and serve was not enough to stop Djokovic, who, right after winning the first set, was attended on court by the physio due to some discomfort in his right shoulder, allowing equality to enter the game, though not for too long.

The second set had the same outcome as the first, even with a massage from the physio 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 throughout the match, leaving no chances for a Struff increasingly distant on the scoreboard.
Djokovic's crosscourt shots made the difference, with the Serbian solid as a rock from the baseline but also daring with slice shots and net approaches, all causing the number of unforced errors from the German to soar. With power in his forehand, Novak hurried to confirm his victory and secure his ticket to the quarterfinals of the US Open 2025.
