Prizmic ends Djokovic’s perfect Rome opener as Croatian qualifier lands second top-10 win

Dino Prizmic walked onto Campo Centrale to face his idol and walked off having beaten him for the first time. The Croatian qualifier (No 79) stunned Novak Djokovic (No 4) 2-6, 6-2, 6-4, ending the Serbian's 18-match unbeaten run in Rome openers and adding a second top-10 scalp to a résumé that did not have one a fortnight ago.
