Novak Djokovic is out at the French Open.
The 39-year-old World No. 4 tennis player lost to World No. 30 ranked Brazilian teen Joao Fonseca, 19, on Friday (May 29) during the Men’s Singles third round match on Day Six of the 2026 French Open at Roland Garros in Paris, France.
He lost 4-6, 4-6, 6-3, 7-5, 7-5.
The elimination follows Jannik Sinner‘s surprising loss. The 24-year-old player, ranked No. 1 in the world, lost to Juan Manuel Cerundolo on Day 5 of the 2026 French Open on Thursday (May 28).
There are no men’s Grand Slam winners left in the draw.
“I just enjoyed being on court and what a pleasure it was. It’s my first stepping on court against him. I was just trying to hit the ball as fast I could. Djokovic don’t miss, we still think he’s 20. At the end of the match I think he was more fit than me, that’s crazy,” Joao said, via ESPN.
He went on to joke: “I felt like [big server] John Isner. I never did this before.”
Carlos Alcaraz won the Australian Open tennis tournament in February at Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena during a four-set thriller against Novak.
