Djokovic and Nadal lead their countries to convincing wins at ATP Cup Globe_Sports
Novak Djokovic celebrates during a doubles match at the 2020 ATP Cup on Jan. 6, 2020, in Brisbane, Australia.Novak Djokovic braved extreme humidity to beat tricky French opponent Gael Monfils 6-3 6-2 and later helped Serbia win the doubles as they progressed at the inaugural ATP Cup team event in Brisbane on Monday.
Djokovic had a 15-0 head-to-head record against Monfils before Monday’s clash and, after surviving an initial onslaught from his opponent, made sure the record remained blemish free. “Obviously playing Gael is never easy. You are coming into the court knowing that you are going to have a lot of exchanges, a lot of rallies. He is a great fighter and a great friend of mine, so I wish him all the best. Tough luck today.”
Anderson, runner-up at the 2017 U.S. Open and Wimbledon a year later, played only five tournaments last year due to injury before undergoing knee surgery in September.
