Novak Djokovic secured his spot in the US Open quarter-finals with a dominant 6-3, 6-3, 6-2 victory over qualifier Jan-Lennard Struff.
Despite twice needing medical attention for a neck and forearm issue, the 38-year-old tennis star showcased a strong performance, firing 33 winners and 12 aces.
The win marks another historic moment for Djokovic, who becomes the oldest player in the Open era to reach the quarter-finals at all four Grand Slams in a single season.
He will next face American Taylor Fritz. Djokovic mentioned the quarter-final match falls on his daughter’s birthday, and he hopes to win as a special gift for her.
