Djokovic Defeats Nadal, Advances to Third Round

Novak Djokovic, the world's top-ranked tennis player, has continued his historic run at the Olympics by defeating 14-time French Open champion Rafael Nadal in the second round. Djokovic won 6-1, 6-4, overcoming a brief wobble in the second set to secure his victory.

Djokovic's Dominance Continues

With this win, Djokovic has now extended his head-to-head record against Nadal to 30-28. It is the first time he has defeated Nadal in a best-of-three set match on clay since 2016.

Djokovic's performance was a display of his dominance on the court. He controlled the match from the outset, breaking Nadal's serve twice in the first set and once in the second. Nadal showed flashes of brilliance, but Djokovic's consistency and power proved too much to overcome.

Olympic Gold Still Elusive

Djokovic is aiming to become the first man to win all four Grand Slams and an Olympic gold medal in the same calendar year. Having never won Olympic gold in his previous appearances at the Games, he will be determined to make history in Tokyo.

Djokovic's victory over Nadal sends a clear message to the rest of the field. He is the man to beat and will be a formidable opponent for anyone who stands in his way of Olympic gold.
