World No. 1 Novak Djokovic has reached the 4th round of the French Open following a straight-sets win over Aljaz Bedene.

The Serbian ace who is looking for his 1st title at Roland Garros, won the 1st set 6-2 in 37 minutes.

Despite dropping his serve, Djokovic continued to dominate in the 2nd and claimed it 6-3, facing a Race against time to finish the match before play would have been suspended due to bad light.

The 11-time Grand Slam champion then broke immediately to open the 3rd and overcame a break back from Bedene in the 4th game, before breaking twice more to take the set 6-2 and post the win.
