Jannik during his on-court interview said there is no better place to defeat the World No.1 after Wimbledon as he felt a little closer but he didn’t even win a set. Excited fans interrupted his media talk by chanting his name loudly.

He added I was able to play the most key points in the greatest possible way. There was some stress when he lost the second set. It was difficult but we (Jannik and the audience) won together.

The 36-year-old Novak who is generally a major favorite in Italy pushed fans to be even more hostile toward him this time. Several times during the thrilling match, the umpire had to instruct the fans to remain quiet as they enthusiastically cheered on the Italian player and blasted Djokovic.

Jannik is now on the verge of reaching the semifinals on Saturday, November 18, 2023, where he will face his next opponent Holger Rune. Holger Rune is a Danish player with an 8th ranking while Jannik has a fourth rank in ATP 2023 tournament.
