Novak Djokovic had a huge surprise in Vienna. The world number one lost to the 42nd player in the ATP rankings. Moreover, she won only three games.

The match between Novak Djokovic and Lorenzo Songe lasted only one hour and ten minutes. There would be nothing strange about that, just like the fact that only two sets were played.

However, it was Sonego who emerged the winner, causing quite a stir in the tennis world. The 25-year-old Italian is also the 42nd player in the ATP rankings.

Sonego won the first set 6-2, the second 6-1. He also gave an excellent performance. For the first time in his career he managed to beat a player from the world top ten, while he has only faced the world’s top players three times.

And to beat a world number one right away? What better could you ask for? With the win, Sonego made it to the semifinals of the Vienna Open.

“It’s amazing, it’s unbelievable. It’s definitely the biggest win of my life. Novak is the best in the world. I played really well,” the Italian tennis player let himself be heard after the fantastic win.
