Djokovic takes down Troicki in Dubai

DUBAI - Novak Djokovic trounced fellow Serb Viktor Troicki 6-1 6-4 in the Dubai Championships first round on Tuesday as the world number one extended his unbeaten run to 14.

Djokovic, whose winning streak stretches back to October and includes claiming a third straight Australian Open title, was broken once in the second set but was otherwise untroubled in his first match since Davis Cup duty in early February.

“I had three or four weeks of no tennis, so I was extremely focused to start well and I did really well in the first set,” Djokovic, 25, said in a courtside interview. “I was right behind his serve and I’m very satisfied with my performance and hopefully I can continue.” Reuters
