Blog Article
Novak Djokovic (5th, Serbia) achieved another milestone by reaching the final of the Miami Open (total prize money of $9.193,540) on the men's professional tennis (ATP) tour.
Djokovic defeated Grigor Dimitrov of Bulgaria 2-0 (6:26:3) in the semifinals of the 10th day of the tournament held in Miami, Florida on Monday (Korea time). Djokovic's final opponent is Jakub Mensic (54th, Czech Republic), who beat Taylor Fritz of the U.S. in the semifinals. Djokovic and Mensic met each other once last year, and Djokovic won 2-1 (6:7 <4:7> 6:1:4).
With the victory, Djokovic advanced to the singles final of the ATP Tour event every year for the 20th consecutive year from 2006 to this year. This is the 20th consecutive year that Djokovic and Roger Federer of Switzerland set this category in singles. Federer reached the final every year from 2000 to 2019.
Djokovic is setting a new record in almost every game in this year's event. In the third round, he recorded the most wins (411 wins) in the history of the ATP Tour Masters 1000 Series, and in the quarterfinals, he also made it to the semifinals of the oldest Masters 1000 Series tournament (37 years and 10 months). Djokovic, who is trying to win the Miami Open for the first time in nine years since 2016, will also record 100 singles wins for the third time in ATP Tour history if he wins. 온라인카지노
