Reading Time: < 1 minute

In a thrilling practice session ahead of the Italian Open, Grigor Dimitrov managed to secure a victory against the world no.1 Novak Djokovic with a score of 6-3. The Bulgarian, currently ranked no.10, showcased his skills on the court as he outplayed the Serbian powerhouse in Rome on May 7, 2024.

Despite this impressive win in practice, it is important to note that Dimitrov is known as the ‘practice king’ on the tour, and practice set results do not always translate to success in tournaments.

Their last encounter was in the final of the Rolex Paris Masters in November 2023, where Djokovic emerged victorious with a score of 6-4 6-3.

Dimitrov’s performance in 2024 has been solid, with a 22-7 record so far this season. He clinched the title in Brisbane and reached the finals in Marseille and Miami. On the other hand, Djokovic has had a successful career, winning a total of 99 titles across different surfaces.

Tennis fans are eagerly anticipating the upcoming matches at the Italian Open, where both Dimitrov and Djokovic will be looking to showcase their skills and compete for the prestigious title. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting rivalry on the court.
