In a stunning upset at the Italian Open, Chilean tennis player Alejandro Tabilo claimed a decisive victory over world No. 1 Novak Djokovic. Tabilo’s triumph, achieved in straight sets and lasting a mere 67 minutes, sent shockwaves through the tennis world.
Breaking Djokovic’s serve four times and maintaining an impeccable performance without conceding a single break point, Tabilo showcased exceptional skill and determination on the court.
Djokovic, a six-time champion at the tournament, struggled to find his rhythm against the relentless onslaught from his lesser-ranked opponent.
With this victory, Tabilo etched his name in the history books as the first Chilean player in 17 years to defeat a world No. 1 player, joining the elite ranks of tennis greats.
Meanwhile, Djokovic’s loss adds to his challenges in the 2024 season, where he has notably failed to reach any final.
