The 24-time Grand Slam winner had a great start to the game, having won the opening set comfortably to take an early lead in the game. However, Korda staged his comeback in the second set despite Djokovic's stellar display to force it into the tie-breaker. But he failed to overcome the Serbian legend's resilience and aggressive play, ultimately crashing out from the marquee event.

Meanwhile, Novak Djokovic seems to have a daunting task in the next game. The six-time Miami champion is now set to face Grigor Dimitrov in the last four rounds. Notably, Dimitrov was a 2024 Miami Open finalist where he crashed out against ultimate champion Jannik Sinner but might pose a big threat to the 37-year-old star player.

In the heartwarming moment, Novak Djokovic was seen enjoying his win with his former rival and current coach, Andy Murray. The duo shared a heartwarming embrace after the Serbian legend thwarted Korda to set his clash with Dimitrov as both ATP stalwarts aimed to book a final berth.

The Serbian legend reflected on his stellar win!

"As good as one can feel about his serve. Unbelievable serving the whole tournament, I’ve been serving really well. Especially today and I needed it because Sebastian in the second set was just making me run and he was playing really well from the back of the court, maybe not making as many errors like in the first set. Tie-break could have been anybody’s game, but again, serve got me out of trouble. 5/4, serve winner. 6/4, ace to finish the match. I’ll take that as a highlight from the match today," Djokovic said after the win.
