Novak Djokovic Wins at US Open

Novak Djokovic advanced to the third round of the US Open after defeating fellow Serbian Laslo Djere, who retired due to an abdominal injury while Djokovic was leading 6-4, 6-4, 2-0. Despite the victory, Djokovic expressed concerns about his performance, particularly highlighting issues with his serve and the challenges posed by the high temperatures in New York. Djere had opportunities to take control of the match, notably holding a 4-2 lead in the second set before succumbing to injury. Djokovic's win marks his 90th victory at the US Open, making him the only player to achieve 90+ match wins in all four Grand Slam tournaments. Alongside Djokovic, other notable players advancing include Coco Gauff and Casper Ruud. The extreme heat conditions were also a point of contention for several players, including Frances Tiafoe, who struggled with the oppressive temperatures during his match.
