Djokovic vanquishes fatigue
Bangkok Post
|October 09, 2025
Novak Djokovic banished exhaustion and played through an ankle injury scare on Tuesday to make it to the quarterfinals of the Shanghai Masters, beating Spain's Jaume Munar 6-3, 5-7, 6-2.

The hard-won victory keeps Djokovic on track as the favourite to take a record-extending fifth title in the Chinese financial hub, with other top seeds already withdrawn or knocked out.
The 38-year-old almost looked unable to continue when the match went to a decider, but he conjured up the energy to break his decade-younger opponent twice in the third set.
“Thank you, thank you everyone, I love you!” he shouted in Chinese to the adoring crowd before leaving court almost immediately after the match finished.
The 24-time Grand Slam champion had a good start despite the 84 percent humidity, breaking Munar in the fourth game.
Djokovic's problems began shortly afterwards when his left ankle slid out behind him as he rushed towards the net, and he had to take a medical timeout.
