Novak Djokovic

Djokovic managed to snatch the break at the right time as he moves with precision form side to side. The Serbian tried to make the most of his returns in the set and kept errors to bare minimum. He held all his service games to take the first set 6-4

With dance tunes cranking at chest-thumping volume, thousands of fist-pumping fans on their feet and famous French DJ Bob Sinclar impersonating Bjorn Borg on the other side of the net, Novak Djokovic spent a large slice of French Open eve relaxing the best way he knows how.

Clowning around to the delight of the packed stands for a kids' day at Court Philippe Chatrier, the Australian Open champion showed the very essence of his barnstorming season in which he has won 37 consecutive matches.
Djokovic marches on with ultimate precision. He gets the first serves at corners and forces errors to take the hold of serve. He holds serve and takes the lead at 5-4 in the first set

Last year I was the defending champion. The year before and the years before that I was trying to win Paris for the first time," Federer said. So I've always had that big cloud hanging over and the 'am I ever going to win the French Open' question.

Once again, the Romanian  Hanescu gives a fitting reply to  Djokovic by holding on to an easy service game. Its 4-4 first set. No break of serve so far in the first set.

I'm really not trying to think about the run that I have, or I'm not trying to think about when this run will end because that will mean that I'm thinking about losing. Djokovic was also proud to play his part in shaking up the men's game.
