Half-century for world no. 1 Novak Djokovic at Roland Garros

New Delhi: World number one Novak Djokovic on Thursday notched up his fifty win at Roland Garros with a straight sets win over Belgian veteran Steve Darcis.

Bidding to complete his career Slam, the Serbian eased into the third round of the French Open in two hours and 19 minutes, with a 7-5, 6-3, 6-4 win.

Djokovic plays Slovenia-born Briton Aljaz Bedene next for a place in round of 32.

Having already won 11 Grand Slam crowns — six coming at the Australian Open, three at Wimbledon and two at the US Open — the 29-year-old is hoping to end his four-final losing streak in Paris.
