French Open: Djokovic Clinches 100th Win To Set Up Quarterfinal Clash With Zverev
Novak Djokovic: Novak Djokovic etched another chapter in his storied career on Monday, becoming just the second player in history to register 100 career wins at Roland Garros. The 38-year-old Serbian achieved the milestone in dominant fashion, cruising past Britain’s Cameron Norrie 6-2, 6-3, 6-2 to advance to the quarterfinals for a record-extending 16th consecutive year at the clay-court major.
“It’s a very pretty number, but 101 victories sounds better,” Djokovic quipped after the match. “I will continue to search for another victory, it’s clearly not finished for me here. I’m very honoured to make history in this sport, which has given me everything in my life.”
With Monday's triumph, the three-time French Open champion joined Rafael Nadal, who has 112 wins at the event, as the only two players to record 100 victories at Roland Garros. Djokovic's win-loss record in Paris now stands at an impressive 100-16.
