Alex Michelsen vs Novak Djokovic Prediction & Picks - ATP Shanghai Masters
by Lou Aguila | in ATP Shanghai Masters Picks
Novak Djokovic will play his first match of the Asian Swing of the ATP Tour against promising American netter Alex Michelsen in the second round of the 2024 Shanghai Masters on Saturday. After crashing out in the third round of the US Open, Djokovic looks to rebuild himself and gain some momentum heading towards the homestretch mark of the ATP season. The Grand Slam record holder failed to win a major title this year, though he still bagged the elusive gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Michelsen seized the opportunity to play arguably the greatest tennis player ever after defeating China Open semifinalist Bu Yunchaokete 6-3 6-4. The 20-year-old American unleashed an array of shots that helped him win 82 percent of his first serves and convert two breakpoint chances.
