Djokovic arrived in Geneva without a win on clay in 2025, having suffered first-round exits in both Monte Carlo and Madrid.<\/p>\n

But with his wait for a 100th Tour-level title<\/a> finally over – one which had gone on since he completed the career ‘Golden Slam’ at the Paris Olympics last summer – the Serb will feel he is beginning to gain real momentum on this surface.<\/p>\n

The one-sided victory over McDonald, completed two minutes short of the two-hour mark, was his fifth successive win following a run of three straight losses.<\/p>\n

After that unfamiliar slump in results, Djokovic took the decision to end his six-month partnership with coach and former rival Andy Murray, who he said joked this week that he was winning tournaments now he had “a proper coach”.<\/p>\n

Asked about his last-minute decision to compete in Geneva, Djokovic said: “I think it was a good move, to be honest, because I was struggling a little bit with [my] confidence level, doubting my game a bit. <\/p>\n

“It was good that I got four matches under my belt, won a title.<\/p>\n

“Coming into Roland Garros, it feels different than compared to the feeling I had three weeks ago.<\/p>\n

“Let’s see how far I can go, but I have a good feeling for now.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
