ATP 500 Beijing Novak Djokovic China Open tennis tournament Nuno Borges

Novak Djokovic made a successful return to the China Open in Beijing, defeating Portugal’s Nuno Borges 6-3, 7-6 (2) to extend his tournament record to 30 wins and zero losses. Despite the victory, the 39-year-old Serbian veteran faced physical challenges, requiring a medical time-out due to stomach issues and lower back discomfort during the match.

Other notable results from the ATP 500 tournament include a significant upset by Russia’s Karen Khachanov, who defeated the second seed Felix Auger-Aliassime 6-3, 6-3. Additionally, Daniil Medvedev advanced to the round of 16 after defeating Pablo Carreño Busta 6-4, 6-2.

Djokovic is scheduled to face Chinese wild card Yunchaokete Bu in the second round. The tournament continues with top seed Alexander Zverev set to compete against Cameron Norrie.
