Novak Djokovic is in the quarterfinals of ATP tournament in Astana (Kazakhstan) because he overcame it Boutique Van De Zandshulp from the Netherlands in two sets with 6:3 and 6:1. The duel lasted one hour and 10 minutes of play.

At the first break of this match, we waited until the sixth game. Before that, the Serbian ace had minor problems because he bled the thumb of his right hand, but after a short medical treatment, he immediately took away his rival's serve. Then she saved a break point, but quickly secured the break for 5:2.

In the second set there were even fewer problems for the seventh player in the world who was leading with 5:1, then he faced another break ball which he easily saved, but immediately after that he made another break for 6:1.

– The service worked well for me, especially when I needed to get out of trouble. In the second set, I read his serve better, he is a great player, when he has time he knows how to be tricky and I tried to take that time away from him - Djokovic said after the match.

The next rival of the Serbian tennis player in Kazakhstan will be Karen Khachanov, who beat Marin Cilic with 2:1. Two more quarterfinal pairs are known in Astana, Mannarino will compete against Rublyov, while Tsitsipas will face Hurkach who won over Bublik 2:0 (6:4, 6:4).
