Talk about a glow-up! Novak Djokovic just flipped last year's Monte Carlo Masters script in style 🔄 The world No.1 battled past Italy's Lorenzo Musetti 7-5, 6-3 on Thursday night, securing his 10th quarterfinal appearance at the tournament – joining Rafael Nadal in the history books 📚
After splitting with coach Goran Ivanisevic last month, the Serbian star showed trademark grit 💪 "I thought, 'Oh no, not again!' when I lost serve at 4-2," Djokovic laughed post-match, referencing his 2023 collapse against Musetti. But this time, he channeled that memory into focus 🧠
The win marks Djokovic's first Top 20 victory of 2024 – perfect timing as clay season heats up ☀️ Next up? A quarterfinal clash that could cement his comeback arc 🏆
"I'm really glad to overcome the challenge," said the 24-time Grand Slam champ, proving even legends get pre-match jitters 😅 One thing's clear: Never count out the Djoker 🃏
