PARIS - Top seed Novak Djokovic thrives when pushed to his physical and mental limits on a tennis court but has been more than happy to cruise into the quarter-finals of the French Open.
His 6-3 6-2 6-2 victory means Djokovic is the first man to reach 10 successive quarter-finals at Roland Garros — a feat even claycourt king Rafael Nadal has not achieved. “I have played plenty of tight matches in my career that I can rely on that experience. I think it’s good to be tested but, at the same time, it’s also good to cruise along and kind of conserve the energy for what’s coming up.”
Djokovic had an early chance to break in the second game but Struff won a fierce baseline rally to avert the danger.
