Djokovic sets new milestone after sensational Beijing start
This marks a truly historic moment in tennis. With his grueling comeback triumph on Sunday, Novak Djokovic has now eclipsed Rafael Nadal's record for the most impressive undefeated streak at any single tour-level tournament throughout the Open Era, pushing his remarkable Beijing winning streak to an astounding 32-0.
The 39-year-old tennis legend from Serbia battled through initial setbacks and a highly contentious umpire decision to dismantle top-seeded Alexander Zverev. Despite enduring 19 powerful serves from the world's second-ranked player, Djokovic secured pivotal service breaks at 5-4 in both the second and third sets to secure a commanding 4-6, 6-4, 6-4 victory.
He now faces an exciting semi-final showdown on Monday against third-seeded Daniil Medvedev, who advanced comfortably by dispatching Francisco Cerundolo 7-6 (7-4), 6-3.
Djokovic has described this intense encounter as one of his most impressive performances this season, matching his stellar Australian Open semi-final appearance, demonstrating to himself that he retains the skill and determination needed to prevail against the sport's elite competitors.
