Preview (via AP)

Nadal won his first-round match against Marton Fucsovics 6-1, 4-6, 6-4 to set up a blockbuster showdown against rival Djokovic.

Djokovic had clinched victory in his first-round clash with a 6-0, 6-1 scoreline against Australia’s Matthew Ebden.

It will be their 60th matchup, more than any other two men have played against each other in the Open era, which began in 1968. Djokovic leads the head-to-head series 30-29.

Djokovic’s 24 Grand Slam titles make him the only man in tennis history with more than Nadal.

Nadal, actually, is without a Slam match win in 2024. He missed the Australian Open in January because of a hurt hip muscle near where his operation was, bowed out in the first round of the French Open in May against eventual runner-up Alexander Zverev, then sat out Wimbledon in July because he wanted to avoid needing to prepare to play on the grass courts there before switching back to clay for the Olympics.
