That was a perfect week for me.

Djokovic ended the Masters in the Italian capital without loss of sets. “It was a perfect week for me,” said the 34-year-old, who is getting closer to his best in front of the French Open.

Tsitsipas (23 )’s world ranking fifth fifth had turned up the two places better with 4: 6, 6: 3, 6: 3 on Saturday. The French Open in Paris, the second Grand Slam tournament of the year, begin on May 22nd.

In his second final this year, Djokovic was already 1: 4 after a perfect first round in the second set, but after a catch -up he saved himself in the tie -break and made everything clear after 1:38 hours.
