Novak Djokovic faces Portugal’s Nuno Borges in their first ATP meeting at the quarter-finals of the Hellenic Championship 2025, held in Athens. Djokovic continues his chase for a remarkable 101st career title—and his second trophy of the 2025 season.
The Serbian champion leads the quarter-final lineup at the OAKA Basketball Arena. Across the net stands Nuno Borges, who has impressed this week with solid form and determination. The sixth seed fought back from a set down in his previous match, showing the mental strength and steady play that have guided him into the ATP top 50.
This marks the first-ever meeting between Djokovic and Borges.
The fast indoor court at the OAKA Arena tends to favor Djokovic’s precision and control. Yet Borges’ bold baseline game and fearless mindset could turn this encounter into a compelling underdog story as he looks to challenge the 24-time Grand Slam champion.
