Novak Djokovic Is 34-0 in Beijing But Please Do Not Ask How

Novak Djokovic extended his perfect record at the China Open to 34-0 with a dominant final victory over Alex de Minaur, who retired early in the second set. The Serbian legend, now 39, claimed his seventh title in Beijing after de Minaur’s withdrawal left Djokovic as the sole champion, further cementing his dominance in the tournament.

The path to victory was not without challenges: Djokovic faced medical timeouts in his opening match against Nuno Borges and a grueling second-set loss to Bu Yunchaokete before rallying to win. Even against world No.

2 Alexander Zverev in the quarterfinals, Djokovic delivered a gritty comeback after dropping the first set, proving his resilience. The semifinal against Daniil Medvedev took an unexpected turn when Medvedev’s errant shot led to a spectator injury, resulting in a default win for Djokovic and advancing him to the final.

His unbeaten streak in Beijing now spans 11 years, a feat that defies logic and physical odds.
