Who is Laslo Djere, bio, age, height, family, parents, coach, tennis ATP ranking, net worth
Djere, who is currently ranked 38 in the world, had an instant influence on the match by breaking Djokovic’s serve in the very first game. Due to that, Laslo Djere was able to defeat Novak Djokovic in the first set, 6-4.
The 28-year-old was on a roll, and his USP was his aggressive play from the baseline and strong groundstokes. Additionally, it is a success to maintain every service game against a skilled returner like Djokovic.
But Djokovic did what he does best, which is to recover from seemingly hopeless circumstances. Many people anticipated that the 23-time Grand Slam winner would have an easy day of it on Friday after only losing 11 games in his first two matches.
Djere, however, had other ideas as he quickly had a two set to love advantage before Djokovic called upon the god-mode that emerges when he most needs it to escape with a victory of 4-6, 4-6, 6-1, 6-1 in three hours and 45 minutes.
