Novak Djokovic will again play a semi-final at the Gonet Geneva Open this Friday. Defeated last year by Tomas Machac, the man with 24 Grand Slam titles hopes for a different outcome this time. He will face Cameron Norrie (ATP 90), who, like Sebastian Ofner, also emerged from the qualifiers.
Novak Djokovic triumphed 6-4 6-4 against Matteo Arnaldi (ATP 39). Trailing 4-1 in the second set, he managed to turn the tables in the endgame to avenge his loss against the Italian who had defeated him last month in Madrid. After winning the match point, he celebrated his 38th birthday with a cake provided by the tournament organizers.
Driven by a supportive crowd, Novak Djokovic played similarly to his performance against Marton Fucsovics the day before. There’s a feeling that the Serb has managed to raise his game. As we know, he aims to make a big impact at the Gonet Geneva Open, aiming to win his 100th career title on Saturday and arrive in top form for Roland-Garros.
However, Novak Djokovic knows that the toughest challenges lie ahead. He approaches his semi-final against Cameron Norrie with extreme caution. The former world No. 8 left-handed Briton seems to have regained all his strength. His performance in the quarterfinals, which lasted almost until dawn against Alex Popyrin, was remarkable. Winning 7-6 (8/6) 6-4, he perfectly neutralized the power of the Australian
