Serbia’s Novak Djokovic reacts as he plays against Italy’s Lorenzo Musetti during their men’s singles match on Court Philippe-Chatrier on day seven of the French Open tennis tournament at the Roland Garros Complex in Paris on June 1, 2024. — AFP picPARIS, June 3 — Novak Djokovic will aim to reach his 15th successive French Open quarter-final on Monday after setting an unwanted Roland Garros record, while Aryna Sabalenka and Elena Rybakina eased through in the women’s draw.
The 25-year-old also made the last 16 in Paris in 2023 where he lost in five sets to Denmark’s Holger Rune. The 23-year-old Navarro was playing in the last 16 of a Grand Slam for the first time and could not deal with Sabalenka’s power. The Kazakh fourth seed is into the last eight for only the second time and first since 2021, after withdrawing following the second round last year through illness.
Gracheva later plays Andreeva, who is the youngest woman to reach the last 16 on all three Slam surfaces since Anna Kournikova in 1998. The 27-year-old German is playing under the shadow of an ongoing trial in Berlin over allegations of assaulting an ex-girlfriend.
