US Open 2025: Scratchy Novak Djokovic endures pain to breeze past teenager Learner Tien in first round

“It was a strange kind of match. The first set was 20 minutes and then the second one was one hour and 20, so quite the opposite sets we played,” the Serbian tennis legend, Novak Djokovic, said after getting past American teen sensation Learner Tien 6-1, 7-6 (3), 6-2, summing up his first round clash in a nutshell. Djokovic, who had a scratchy start to the clash, broke early, sustained a foot blister later on, and was huffing and puffing as Tien made a remarkable comeback, struggled with his fitness a bit, to ultimately snatched the game rather comfortably in the third set.
