World No. 1 Novak Djokovic began his 2024 Roland Garros campaign in Paris with a straight-sets victory over Pierre-Hugues Herbert. Despite not being at his impervious best, Djokovic secured a 6-4, 7-6(3), 6-4 win in the first round. The defending champion's performance was described as solid but unspectacular, reflecting his 'low expectations' for the tournament. Djokovic, who is on a quest for Grand Slam title No. 25, will face Roberto Carballes Baena in the second round.
