Novak Djokovic is set to face Jakub Mensik in the Miami Open 2025 final
Djokovic is now set to face 19-year-old Jakub Mensik in the final thriller. Notably, the Czech star has toppled American star Taylor Fritz in the semi-final to storm into his first ATP 1000 Masters. Mensik had been in great form. He made bold headlines when he defeated Indian Wells champion Jack Draper in his first round of Miami in Florida. The two ATP stalwarts must be fighting to mark a win in their summit clash.
Djokovic eyes landmark 100 ATP title!
Meanwhile, Djokovic has expressed his emotion about facing Mensik in the next game. The Serbian ace has discussed his aim to win his 100th ATP title of his career. He spoke about how close he was in the Australian Open, but his injury ruled him out in the semi-finals.
“Ever since I won my 99th, which was the Olympic Games in Paris, I've been playing with the prospect of winning the special hundred titles. I played the finals of Shanghai. I was close there. Semi-finals of Australia. Then been trying to find that necessary and much-needed level of tennis that will put me in a position to fight for a trophy, a big trophy,” Djokovic said after defeating Grigor Dimitrov in Miami.
