Novak Djokovic's next match: Opponent, venue, live streaming, TV channel and schedule | Monte-Carlo Masters 2023, Round 3

Novak Djokovic will square off against Lorenzo Musetti in the third round of the Monte-Carlo Masters.

Djokovic is the top seed at the Masters 1000 tournament and thus received a bye to the second round, where he faced World No.198 Ivan Gakhov. The 26-year-old Russian made the first break of the opening set in the seventh game before the Serb broke back in the very next game.

Both players then held their serve to take the first set to a tiebreak. Djokovic started the tiebreak strongly and led 6-3 before Gakhov saved two set points. However, the Serb converted his third set point to take the lead in the match.

The Serb was a lot more dominant in the second set and won it 6-2 to book his place in the third round of the Monte-Carlo Masters.
