Novak Djokovic has made a winning start to his campaign in Athens, defeating Chile’s Alejandro Tabilo in straight sets in his opening match at the ATP 250 indoor hard-court event, 7-6 (3), 6-1.
And it was a special victory for a few reasons, most notably because Tabilo had won both of the pair’s two previous meetings—in straight sets, no less—in Rome last year and Monte Carlo earlier this year.
But only one player—Roger Federer—has ever won their first three career meetings against Djokovic, and he’ll now remain alone in that stat.
More to come…
