Novak Djokovic Returns to China for 100th Title Pursuit

Novak Djokovic, a tennis legend, has achieved remarkable success in China, claiming 11 titles on Chinese soil, including the 2008 Masters Cup triumph in Shanghai. His undefeated reign over six trips to Beijing highlights his dominance in the region.

Djokovic attributes his success to his love for Chinese dumplings and language. He believes these cultural connections contribute to his comfort and confidence on the court.

Returning to China for the first time in five years, Djokovic is eager to compete at the Rolex Shanghai Masters. Despite missing last year’s Asian swing, he remains optimistic about his chances.

During a practice session with Zhang Zhizhen, Djokovic assessed the court conditions as “pretty fast,” similar to his previous experiences. He emphasized the importance of serving well, a skill he has been honing in preparation for the tournament.

Djokovic’s first tournament since his third-round exit at the US Open has provided him with ample time to prepare. He hopes to leverage his “freshness” to his advantage as he aims for his 100th career title.

“I just love playing here, love the conditions, love the support that I get,” Djokovic said. “I also have an extra motivation of trying to go for my 100th title.”

Djokovic will begin his campaign against the winner of Alex Michelsen and Bu Yunchaokete. With his experience and determination, he remains a formidable contender for the Shanghai Masters title.
