Novak Djokovic loses to world No.293 as Serb crashes out of Brisbane International | Tennis | Sport
Novak Djokovic suffered a massive upset at the Brisbane International on Friday.
Competing in his first tournament since October, Djokovic was dumped out in the quarter-final.
Reilly Opelka, whose ranking has dropped to No. 293 following a two-year injury layoff, caused all sorts of problems for the Serb, winning 7-6(6) 6-3.
Djokovic advanced to the last eight with ease, dropping just 12 games in his first two matches. But he knew 6’11 Opelka would prove to be a dangerous opponent.
After his second-round win on Thursday, the world No. 7 said: “Opelka has been injured, couple years he struggled a lot. Great guy off the court, we get on well.
“I’ve never faced him on the court. My gosh, I’m going to have to probably step back a few steps for that first serve.”

Novak Djokovic suffers shocking defeat at Brisbane InternationalIn a surprising turn of events, world No. 1 Novak Djokovic was defeated by the unseeded world No. 293 in the second round of the Brisbane International. The Serb, who is known for his dominance on the tennis court, was unable to overcome the underdog in a match that left fans in disbelief.
