Routine victory for Djokovic; Awaiting a Grand Slam record; Next opponent known; Otherwise, what's the point?

From the very start, Djokovic set the pace and showcased the difference in quality.

Although Maestrelli tried to stay in the set through longer rallies, the Serbian patiently waited for his opportunities and secured an early break. With solid service games, Djokovic closed out the first set without major problems.

In the second set, Djokovic raised his level even further. An early break gave him calmer control over the set, while the Italian struggled to find solutions from the baseline.

Djokovic was precise and aggressive at key moments, and with another break, he comfortably moved to a 2-0 lead.

At the start of the third set, Maestrelli managed to hold a game on Djokovic’s serve, but the Serbian quickly responded.

Djokovic then secured a break to regain control, followed by consolidating his advantage.

He appeared confident and focused, keeping the match firmly under his control, even as Maestrelli tried to fight back, attack, and capitalize, but also made errors.

The Italian managed to recover one break, but no more than that. In the end, after two hours and 15 minutes of play, the greatest tennis player of all time advanced to the third round.

In the next round, Djokovic will face Botic van de Zandschulp, who defeated Yuncheng Shang.

Djokovic now needs just one more win to reach a historic 400th victory at Grand Slam tournaments.
