In tennis, Novak Djokovic of Serbia will face Belgium’s Zizou Bergs in the quarterfinals of the Shanghai Masters 2025 tomorrow.

The 38-year-old Novak Djokovic battled exhaustion and ankle injury to defeat Spain’s Jaume Munar 6-3, 5-7, 6-2.

Despite medical timeouts and visible fatigue, Djokovic rallied in the final set to secure the win.

With other top seeds out of the competitions, he remains the favourite for a record-extending fifth title and is now the oldest player to reach an ATP Masters 1000 quarterfinal.
