🚨 SHOCKING TENNIS NEWS! Novak Djokovic’s season has reportedly come to a heartbreaking end following a devastating setback at the Paris Masters! 😢🎾
Novak Djokovic suffers disaster as season comes to sudden end at Paris Masters
Novak Djokovic’s 2026 season has ended with a disappointing second-round exit at the Paris Masters. The 10th seed suffered a 2-6 6-3 6-3 defeat to qualifier Rinky Hijikata, who, at No. 83 in the world, became the lowest-ranked man to beat Djokovic this year. The result also means the Serbian superstar cannot qualify for the ATP Finals – something he had been vocal about in recent weeks. Djokovic ends his season with a 21-10 win-loss record, one title at the China Open, and a runner-up finish at the Australian Open.
The 39-year-old impressed during his opening match in Paris on Tuesday, coming back from a set and break down to beat in-form Basel champion Valentin Vacherot in three sets. But it was a reversal of fortunes on Wednesday, as Djokovic could not hold on to his lead after racing through the opening set.
