Djokovic will face Portugal’s Nuno Borges, the world No. 49, no earlier than 1 p.m. this Wednesday.This is not just another tournament for the Serbian champion.Djokovic has produced some of the best performances of his career in Beijing, as demonstrated by his incredible record of 29 wins in 29 matches, along with six titles from six appearances.At a press conference, the Belgrade-born star was very clear about why he decided to compete in Beijing — he wants to give something back to the Chinese fans for all the love they have shown him over the years."It’s been a long time since my last appearance — 11 years. I have a very good record here. I’ve always enjoyed playing in Beijing, in China in general, and especially here. I’ve always received tremendous support, and the atmosphere is incredible. During practices and matches, I feel so much love and support from Chinese tennis fans.""I can’t wait to play again. Sooner or later, I was going to return to Beijing, and I’m glad it happened this year. I arrived a few days early to get in some practice and spend some time on court before the tournament began. I hope to experience those great emotions from the past again and have a fantastic tournament," Djokovic said.How is Djokovic feeling physically?

Playing a match is different from any practice session or practice set. So far, everything is fine.""I couldn’t wait to come to China. The results I’ve achieved here speak for themselves. Knowing that I have this record (29 wins in 29 matches, ed.) gives me the confidence I need right now," Djokovic explained. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Novak Djokovic (@djokernole)
