2025 Roland Garros QF - Djokovic vs Zverev

[Palindrome]

GSM. Zverev put up a fight, but Novak comes through. Congrats Novak on reaching his 51st Grand Slam semifinal!

 

[GabeT]

40-15 for thee but not for me

 

[RF-18]

Novak Djokovic

 

[Kralingen]

Hahaha of course it ends on a flubbed reply to a drop shot. Of course. Well done Zverev

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Djoko survives and through!!

 

[nolefam_2024]

This is Apocalypse Now, when Zverev finally meets Djokovic after being sent to assassinate him by his haters....

Djokovic wins!!! RG semi at 38 years of age!

i will say , nole would have won the semis in ao as well but just got injured at wrong time .

he is top 2/3 player at all 4 slams

 

[Tennis_Freak99]

Is there anything left in the tank for Sinner match?

 

[DjokoLand]

I don’t know what is more epic Djokovic beating the world number 3 at 38, or the world number 3 being routined by a 38 year old

 

[The Guru]

What a win

 

[joekapa]

This is Apocalypse Now, when Zverev finally meets Djokovic after being sent to assassinate him by his haters....

Djokovic wins!!! RG semi at 38 years of age!

Brilliant !

 

[Lob And Let Die]

Excellent win for Djokovic - had to dig deep in that last set. Next up, Jannik Sinner in the semi finals of Roland Garros!

 

[I Am Finnish]

Congrats #ABZ

 

[nolefam_2024]

Is there anything left in the tank for Sinner match?

a lot

he doesn't have tiredness excuse. if sinner wins, he wins. no excuese

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Djokovic was hoping Zverev would miss one. The miss came and novak into SF

 

[Dane_is_Finnish_OJ]

some woke bs i think

What do you mean?

 

[Rosstour]

He absolutely insisted that the dropper was the way to go.

Zverev just never adjusted his court position

 

[Hitman]

Is there anything left in the tank for Sinner match?

You better believe there is.

 

[Soundmouse]

Yeah, variety. Djokovic is not a ball basher like he used to be so this might trip up Sinner a bit, also he raise his level when needed

 

[tudwell]

Thank you, Djokovic. Your dezverevification services have been much appreciated, but I’m afraid I must root against you from here on out.

 

[Terenigma]

Genuinely great match but god damn Djokovic is just unreal. 38. He's at that level at 38 and he's playing an in-form top 5 clay player and didn't even let it go to 5.

Bring on Sinner!

 

[TheAssassin]

One more AO semi and he will have 13 last four appearances in all the Majors.

What a performance. May he continue with more of these this week and beyond.

 

[joekapa]

 

[Cortana]

Anyone remembers Zverevs press conference 2 months ago where he was asked if Djokovic is done? And he said something like „Djokovic is a different beast in slams, you‘ll see“.

 

[RF-18]

I think the crowd will be with him for the rest of the matches. They want to see him beat all the odds. They were with him today.

 

[Tennis Fan States63]

That dropper - Zverev decides to go cross- and misses.....Djokovic takes it and into SF to face top-seed Jannik Sinner. Pretty darn good match from him today.

 

[junior74]

Congrats, Oldvak! Well done!

Uninspired stuff from Zod, not putting himself in there at all…

 

[JackieTreeh0rn]

If you notice on the last epic rally, the drop shot miserably failed and Djoker had to fight for his life to recover and miraculously win the long rally.
Are we watching the same match?

What’s your final take?

 

[NYTennisfan]

That last point was emblematic of Zverev's career

 

[Mustard]

Is there anything left in the tank for Sinner match?

Even if there isn't, it was a great win for Djokovic tonight.

 

[NoleFam]

Great performance. 38 years old and still can bring it in a big match. Crazy that he physically can still wear these guys down at his age. Amazing.

 

[kishnabe]

Right man won. Zeverev would have been pigeoned by Sinner.

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

a lot

he doesn't have tiredness excuse. if sinner wins, he wins. no excuese

Yeah both guys fresh and healthy. May the best man win!

 

[nolefam_2024]

What do you mean?

some protest i think the woman was doing some protest in middle of a match

 

[Better_Call_Raul]

3 Djoker drop shots just in this game. 1/3.

Fourth drop of the game works. Zed overhits it long.

 

[Move]

Is there anything left in the tank for Sinner match?

You Bet

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Djokovic into yet another grand slam SF! What a man!

 

[davced1]

I can’t see Djokovic beat Sinner atm but well done

 

[RSJfan]

LOL Zed

 

[nolefam_2024]

I think the crowd will be with him for the rest of the matches. They want to see him beat all the odds. They were with him today.

agreed, the crowd was massively supporting him in olympics as well.

 

[davced1]

What does it say about Zverev, who is 10 years younger?

Same old Zverev

 

[Zodd]

Djokovic fully deserved this win and Zverev unf reinforces the doubts over whether he has the strength of mind to ever truly threaten for GS titles against the best players

 

[paolo2143]

Great win for Novak, just shows class is permanent and when he puts his mind to it he is still one of world's best even at the age of 38.

Still think Sinner is playing at too high a level for 38 Yr old Novak but I hope he can make it a really competitive match and put up a better fight than anybody Sinner has met so far.

 

[messiahrobins]

Lol… Zed refusing to learn. 30 droppers, still glued 2-3 meters behind the baseline

I'm astonished what his coaching team were doing. Amazing.

 

[nolefam_2024]

57 years ago, Pancho Gonzalez made RG semis at 40
Djokovic is second oldest at 38

 

[StrongRule]

NID. As usual, the younger players are a joke. 2022 Nadal who could barely stand beat the very same Djokovic, in the same conditions. But the younger generations can't do it to this day.

 

[RF-18]

The oldest man in open era to reach the RG SF.

This guy is epic.

 

[Terry Tibbs]

Why does Corretja stand so far away from the players when he interviews them? So weird.

 

[Hitman]

There will be a record breaking 118th match played by Djokovic in the semis.

 

[CoolCoolCool]

I'm starting to think Djoker grew a beard to look his age and lull his opponents into a false sense of security.

 

[NoleFam]

How many RG SFs is that now? Lol.
