Novak Djokovic has once again asserted his dominance on the clay court, advancing to the semifinals of the 2025 French Open after dispatching his quarterfinal opponent in straight sets. Djokovic, now 37, continues to redefine longevity in tennis, maintaining impeccable form, focus, and mental toughness. His latest win came against rising star Holger Rune, with Djokovic breaking serve five times en route to a convincing 6-3, 6-2, 6-4 victory at Roland Garros.
This marks Djokovic’s 13th career semifinal appearance at the French Open, placing him one step closer to a record-extending 25th Grand Slam title. Analysts have praised his strategic precision and physical fitness, especially given the younger, aggressive opponents he’s had to fend off throughout the tournament. Djokovic has adapted his game once again, employing more net play and drop shots to conserve energy and outwit challengers.
The Serbian star will face Carlos Alcaraz next in what promises to be a generational battle with major implications for the tennis landscape. Should he go on to win the title, Djokovic would further cement his legacy as arguably the greatest men’s player in history. His quest for continued greatness is alive and thriving in Paris, and fans are watching closely.
