Novak Djokovic’s shocking loss to Alejandro Tabilo in the second round of the 2025 Monte-Carlo Masters has left the Serbian tennis legend visibly disappointed. The loss, which came after receiving a first-round bye, was a 6-3, 6-4 defeat in just under an hour and a half. Djokovic admitted that it was “the worst day” at the office, expressing frustration with his performance and apologizing to his fans. Despite knowing that his form might not be at its peak, he was still stunned by how poorly he played.
After the loss, Djokovic reflected on his goal for the European clay swing, revealing that his main focus remains on winning Roland Garros to secure his 25th Grand Slam title and his 100th career title. His performance in Monte Carlo was a disappointment, but he plans to regroup and aim for better results in the upcoming Madrid Masters.
It’s been a tough start to the clay season for Djokovic, but his sights are clearly set on his ultimate goal at the French Open.
Do you think Djokovic can find his rhythm in time for Roland Garros, or is this the beginning of a tougher season for him?
