French Open: Novak Djokovic is certainly no dark horse to quarterfinal foe Alexander Zverev
PARIS — For all of Novak Djokovic's titles and Grand Slam trophies and weeks at No. 1 , for all of his talent and determination, the guy still can find himself worrying about what is going on with his game. Happened a little more than a month ago, even, when he was coming off three consecutive losses — his second skid of that length in 2025 — and was particularly concerned about being 0-2 on red clay this season as the start of the French Open approached. So Djokovic decided to enter the Geneva Open and what do you know? He hasn't lost since, going 8-0 heading into his quarterfinal matchup against No. 3 Alexander Zverev at Roland-Garros on Wednesday. After leaving Geneva with the championship, Djokovic not only has won his first four matches in Paris, but has yet to drop a set. 'It happens if you lose a match or two consecutively, and then you don't feel you have enough match play, you start to maybe doubt your game. You don't want to be in that state of the mind coming into Grand Slams,' the 38-year-old Serb said. 'So I'm just glad it all turned out to be perfect for me, in that sense.' He and Zverev, a 28-year-old German, know each other quite well, on a court and off. This will be their 14th head-to-head contest on tour dating to 2017 — Djokovic holds an 8-5 advantage — and first since meeting in the semifinals at the Australian Open in January. That one ended after just one set: Djokovic stopped playing because of an injured hamstring, drawing boos from the ticket-buyers, and Zverev defended him. Their only previous encounter in Paris came back in 2019, and Djokovic won their quarterfinal in three sets. When Zverev, who credits Djokovic with serving as something of a mentor, looked ahead to Wednesday, he said: 'It's always a privilege to be on court with him." The other quarterfinal Wednesday will be No. 1 Jannik Sinner against unseeded Alexander Bublik, the first man from Kazakhstan to get this far at any Grand Slam tournament. The first two men's quarterfinals were scheduled for Tuesday and, surprisingly, each one involved an American: defending champion Carlos Alcaraz of Spain vs. No. 12 Tommy Paul, and No. 8 Lorenzo Musetti of Italy vs. No. 15 Frances Tiafoe. There was a bit of buzz after first-match losses at tournaments in Monte Carlo and then Madrid about whether Djokovic should not even be thought of as a contender this time around at Roland-Garros, although it is a place where he has claimed the trophy three times. He also is the only player to beat 14-time champion Rafael Nadal more than once at the French Open. Both of those April setbacks came against unseeded opponents, Alejandro Tabilo and Matteo Arnaldi. Both were over in straight sets. So Zverev was asked Tuesday whether Djokovic, whose recent woes dropped him to No. 6 in the seedings, might be thought of as a dark horse in Paris. The premise seemed misguided to Zverev, who is a three-time runner-up at major tournaments — including to Alcaraz at Roland-Garros a year ago and to Sinner at Melbourne Park this year. 'I mean, the guy won 24 Grand Slams. He's never going to be a horse. He definitely knows how to play tennis,' Zverev said. 'He definitely knows what it means to be on the big stage and to play big matches. There is no doubt about that.' Howard Fendrich has been the 's tennis writer since 2002.

World No.361 Boisson stuns third seed Pegula at French Open 2025; Djokovic hits century at Roland Garros
In one of the biggest shockers at French Open, wild card holder and World No.361 Lois Boisson outplayed the American favourite Jessica Pegula as the Chatrier crowd was on their feet. read more Lois Boisson of France celebrates winning her match against Jessica Pegula of the United States at Roland Garros Stadium. Image: Susan Mullane-Imagn Images/Reuters Three-times champion Novak Djokovic reached a century of wins at the French Open in a straight sets victory against Cameron Norrie on Monday and top seed Jannik Sinner produced another masterclass to also blaze into the quarter-finals. Men's fifth seed Jack Draper bowed out though, as did women's third seed Jessica Pegula who was stunned by world France's world number 361 Lois Boisson. Serbian Djokovic, the sixth seed, looked serene in outclassing Britain's Norrie 6-2 6-3 6-2 to edge closer to a record-breaking 25th Grand Slam title. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Djokovic became the second man to win 100 matches at the Paris Grand Slam after retired 14-times champion Rafael Nadal (112), to set up a last-eight clash against Alexander Zverev. 'It's a number which is very good and nice, but a 101st win is even better,' Djokovic, who won the Olympic gold medal last year in Paris to complete his trophy cabinet, told the appreciative crowd in fluent French. 'It's not finished for me here the tournament and I feel very good and good to make history here. I hope there will be another win here in two days.' His German opponent in the last eight spent even less time on the court, third seed Zverev punching his ticket when Dutchman Tallon Griekspoor retired midway through the second set with an abdominal injury. Zverev has reached his seventh French Open quarter-final in the last eight years and is still looking to secure a maiden Grand Slam title. 'From now on I have the toughest draw in the tournament,' Zverev said. 'I'm looking forward to the battles ahead, and I'm looking forward to playing the best in the world.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Sublime Sinner reaches quarters World number one Sinner lit up the night session with a sublime display to beat Andrey Rublev 6-1 6-3 6-4 and stretch his winning streak in Grand Slam play to 18 matches. Italian Sinner, the U.S. and Australian Open champion, has won all 12 sets he has played this year on Parisian clay and looks in ominous form as he closes on a first French Open title. While Djokovic, Sinner and Zverev were all smiles, Britain's dark horse Draper was heading for home after succumbing to a mesmeric display by Kazakh Alexander Bublik, who a few months ago questioned his future having dropped down the pecking order. The 27-year-old, among the most naturally gifted players on tour who has admitted to lacking the commitment of other top professionals, seized his moment to drop shot his way past young gun Draper to reach his first Grand Slam quarter-final. Bublik, who had never got past the second round in Paris, hit a staggering 37 drop shots in his 5-7 6-3 6-2 6-4 win. 'Standing here is the best moment of my life, period,', Bublik, in tears, told the crowd. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'I'm standing here like I won the thing. I can't cry here, let me be in peace, I'm a professional tennis player, I've got one more match, I've got to get ready.' Bublik's victory was the second upset of the day after unheralded Boisson shook up the women's draw with a shock 3-6 6-4 6-4 win over Pegula. World number 361 Boisson stuns Pegula Wild card Boisson outplayed the American favourite with the aid of a fierce forehand that had the Chatrier crowd on their feet. As if that was not enough for the home crowd, they also got to see the Champions League soccer trophy minutes later, after Paris St Germain's victory over Inter Milan on Saturday. PSG forward Ousmane Dembele carried it onto the court to ear-splitting cheers as his team became the second French outfit to lift the European Cup after Olympique de Marseille in 1993. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Second seed Coco Gauff was in no mood for surprises, however, as she brushed aside Russian Ekaterina Alexandrova 6-0 7-5 to stay on course for her first title in Paris. Gauff, who got to the final in 2022 and semis last year, is the youngest American to reach at least the fourth round at seven straight Grand Slams since Venus Williams from 1997-1999. The Americans are guaranteed a semi-finalist with Gauff next facing Australian Open champion Madison Keys, who eased past Hailey Baptiste. Russian teenager Mirra Andreeva also booked a last-eight spot by overcoming Australian 17th seed Daria Kasatkina 6-3 7-5 to become the youngest player to reach back-to-back French Open quarter-finals in nearly three decades.

World No.1 Aryna Sabalenka, Iga Swiatek and Carlos Alcaraz are amongst the top seeds who will be looking to book their berths in the semi-finals of the French Open 2025. Last year, Sabalenka couldn't make her way through to the semis after losing to then-17-year-old Mirra Andreeva and would be looking to make amends this time around. The 27-year-old Sabalenka has a 6-1 head-to-head record against Qinwen Zheng, but it's the latter, who won in their last meeting - 6-4, 6-3 - in the quarterfinals of the Rome Masters earlier this year. advertisementSwiatek, who is looking to win four titles on the trot, came back from a set down to beat Elena Rybakina in the quarters. She will be up against the feisty Elina Svitolina, who saved three match points to beat last year's runner-up Jasmine Paolini in the quarters. In the men's singles, Lorenzo Musetti will lock horns with Frances Tiafoe, who will be playing in his maiden semi-final at Roland Garros.
