Novak Djokovic and Hamad Medjedovic sealed Serbia’s Davis Cup World Group 1 tie against Greece with a 6-3, 3-6, 6-3 victory in the doubles rubber against Aristotelis Thanos and Petros Tsitsipas on Sunday in Belgrade.
The Serbians served 13 aces and won 75 per cent (42/56) of their first-serve points en route to closing out the match in two hours and 10 minutes.
The former champion led 2-0 at the start of Day 2 play following singles wins from Djokovic and Miomir Kecmanovic on Saturday. They entered Sunday's action in Serbia requiring just one win to advance.
Serbia now progresses to the 2025 Davis Cup Qualifiers for a chance to return to the Davis Cup Group Stage Finals. The country won the Davis Cup in 2010, defeating France 3-2 in the final.
Medjedovic made just his second Davis Cup appearance after his three-set victory against Norway’s Viktor Durasovic last year. The 21-year-old won the NextGen ATP Finals presented by PIF title last year and made a final at an ATP Challenger Tour event last week.
Former No. 1 in the PIF ATP Rankings Djokovic is looking to regain his form in the upcoming months ahead of the Nitto ATP Finals. The record seven-time champion is currently ninth in the PIF ATP Live Race to Turin.
