However, that did not appear to be on his mind in the US Open<\/a> quarterfinals, with Djokovic rating his performance against Fritz<\/a>.<\/p>\n This is not the first time that Djokovic has beaten Fritz at the US Open<\/a>, as he improves his dominant head-to-head over the American number one.<\/p>\n The first time that Djokovic<\/a> beat Fritz<\/a> was at the Monte Carlo Masters<\/a> in 2019, and he has gone on to win all 11 of their meetings since then.<\/p>\n Not only has Djokovic won all 11 of their matches, he has also won 26 of the 30 sets they have played against one another.<\/p>\n Djokovic lost one of those sets against Fritz in their most recent encounter in the US Open quarterfinals, which he won 6-3 7-5 3-6 6-4.<\/p>\n Although this is a very one-sided head-to-head that Djokovic has against Fritz, there are actually four other players that he has beaten more times without losing a single match.<\/p>\n Leading that unwanted record is Gael Monfils<\/a>, who he has beaten 20 times in a row including a match at the Brisbane International<\/a> earlier this year.<\/p>\n The other three players on this list to have the worst records against Djokovic are Jeremy Chardy (14-0), Milos Raonic<\/a> (12-0) and Andreas Seppi (12-0).<\/p>\n Former Wimbledon<\/a> finalist Raonic has admitted he did not know what to do against Djokovic<\/a>, when comparing playing him to the likes of Roger Federer<\/a> and Rafael Nadal<\/a>.<\/p>\n Both Chardy and Seppi cannot worsen their record against Djokovic as they are officially retired, but Monfils, Raonic and Fritz can still worsen their head-to-heads.<\/p>\n While many players struggle against the 24-time Grand Slam champion, there are actually a select few players who actually have a winning head-to-head against Djokovic.<\/p>\n Which ATP player does Novak Djokovic have the worst record against?<\/p>\n There are 11 players who have somehow managed to get a winning head-to-head against Djokovic.<\/p>\n Included in this list are the likes of Andy Roddick<\/a>, Nick Kyrgios<\/a> and Reilly Opelka, who beat Djokovic in Brisbane<\/a> earlier this year, but four players\u2019 records stand out more than the rest.<\/p>\n There are only three players who are unbeaten against Djokovic after playing him multiple times<\/a>, with Alejandro Tabilo the latest to join this list after his win at the Monte Carlo Masters earlier this year.<\/p>\n Jannik Sinner also beat Djokovic at Wimbledon<\/a> to extend his advantage over the Serbian, after previously trailing the head-to-head 4-1.<\/p>\n ATP PlayerHead-to-head with DjokovicMost Recent meetingJannik Sinner6-4 Sinner Sinner beat Djokovic, 6-3 6-3 6-4 (Wimbledon 2025)Marat Safin2-0 SafinSafin beat Djokovic, 6-4 7-6(3) 6-2 (Wimbledon 2008)Jiri Vesely2-0 VeselyVesely beat Djokovic, 6-4 7-6(4) (Dubai Tennis Championships 2022)Alejandro Tabilo2-0 TabiloTabilo beat Djokovic, 6-3 6-4 (Monte Carlo Masters 2025)Fernando Gonzalez2-1 GonzalezGonzalez beat Djokovic, 7-5 5-7 7-5 (Madrid Open 2006)Andy Roddick5-4 RoddickDjokovic beat Roddick, 6-2 6-1 (London Olympics 2012)Ivo Karlovic2-1 KarlovicKarlovic beat Djokovic, 6(2)-7 7-6(6) 6-4 (Qatar Open 2015)Taro Daniel1-0 DanielDaniel beat Djokovic, 7-6(3) 4-6 6-1 (Indian Wells 2018)Nick Kyrgios2-1 KyrgiosDjokovic beat Kyrgios, 3-6 6-3 6-4 7-6(3) (Wimbledon 2022)Luca Nardi1-0 NardiNardi beat Djokovic, 6-4 3-6 6-3 (Indian Wells 2024)Reilly Opelka1-0 OpelkaOpelka beat Djokovic, 7-6(3) 6-3 (Brisbane International 2025)<\/p>\n Next up for Djokovic is actually a man who he has a winning head-to-head against in Carlos Alcaraz<\/a>.<\/p>\n Djokovic has beaten Alcaraz five times<\/a> in their eight previous meetings, including at the Australian Open<\/a> earlier this year.<\/p>\n However, the Spaniard is yet to drop a set at the US Open this year, while Djokovic has already suffered three Grand Slam semifinal defeats in 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Novak Djokovic beat Taylor Fritz to progress to his 14th career semifinal at the US Open.
