After a poor start to the season, the Serbian Novak Djokovic is determined to turn things around in style. Just days before the French Open finally kicks in, the World No. 1 player will be going to the event as the defending champion. But right before the start, he wants to make sure that he gives his 100% and enters the Roland Garros as a clear favorite.
Thus, the Serbian superstar announced that he will be taking part in the upcoming ATP Geneva Open which is a 250 event. The draw, which was recently released, had some of the major names in the event. However, Novak Djokovic’s projected run to the finals was prepared and interestingly, in the bid to win the title, he could potentially lock horns against Ben Shelton in the final.
After getting a bye in the first round, he could either face rival Andy Murray or German tennis player Yannick Hanfmann. Should he manage to get past round 2, he could lock horns against the winner of Dutch tennis player Tallon Greikspoor or Canadian Denis Shapovalov in the quarter-finals. Then a semi-final win against either Taylor Fritz or Jack Draper would help him secure a spot in the final.
