In a significant tennis upset, Alejandro Tabilo defeated world number one Novak Djokovic 6-2, 6-3 at the Italian Open in Rome, advancing to the fourth round. This marks Tabilo's first victory over a top-ranked player. Djokovic, who has not reached any finals in 2024, appeared out of form and reportedly wanted to leave the court quickly during the final game. This loss, Djokovic's first match since being accidentally struck in the head with a metal water bottle, was concluded in 67 minutes with Djokovic double faulting on match point. Tabilo's next opponent will be Karen Khachanov.
