The Czech tennis player Jiri Vesely scored his second win over Novak Djokovic. The first time he defeated him in 2016, now it was the second time. At the tournament in Dubai Jiri Vesely won 2: 0 after sets 6: 4 and 7: 6.
After this scalp, Jiri Vesely moved on to the semi-finals of the tournament. There he will face the winner of the Brankis-Shapalov pair. Before this match, Vesely had already eliminated one favourite. In the eighth round, he won against the top-seeded Bautista.
The Czech tennis player is doing well at the tournament in Dubai. He made it through the qualification to the main draw, besides wins over Djokovic and Bautista he managed to beat Cilic.
Novak Djokovic may be disappointed. More than the loss in today’s match, he will be upset about the fact that he will lose his place as world number one. He will be replaced on the tennis throne by Russian Daniil Medvedev.
The tournament in Dubai is played on a hard surface. Jiri Vesely may see considerable motivation in the prize money for winning the tournament. The champion will receive a subsidy of almost three million dollars.
Hurkacz and Rublev will face each other in the second semi-final. Hurkacz is seeded five and Rublev is seeded two.
