Djokovic, the sixth seed, won the match 6-2, 6-3, 6-2 on the Philippe Chatrier court. At 38 years old, this marks his 16th consecutive appearance in the quarterfinals, achieving his 100th win in Paris. He aims to increase his Grand Slam titles to 25 after clinching his 100th career title at the Geneva Open before heading to the French capital.
With this victory, Djokovic becomes the second player to reach 100 wins at Roland Garros, following Spanish Rafael Nadal, who has 112.
Djokovic expressed his satisfaction, saying, "I feel good and believe I can play better. After 12 sets played and won, everything is positive right now." He added, "Winning 100 is great, but 101 will be even better. I'm very proud, but I must keep going."
Djokovic, a three-time Roland Garros champion (2016, 2021, 2023), will face third-seeded German Alexander Zverev, who advanced after Dutch player Tallon Griekspoor withdrew due to injury while trailing 6-4, 3-0.
