ANKARA
Reigning champion Novak Djokovic crushed Slovenia’s Aljaz Bedene in straight sets on Friday to reach the French Open fourth round.
Djokovic swept aside Bedene 6-3, 6-3, 6-2 to set up a clash with Argentina’s Diego Schwartzman.
The win kept Djokovic, a 20-time Grand Slam champion with two French Open titles, on course for a possible quarterfinal encounter with 13-time Roland Garros winner Rafael Nadal.
Nadal cruised into the fourth round with a 6-3, 6-2, 6-4 victory over Dutch opponent Botic van de Zandschulp on Friday.
Nadal, who lost to Djokovic in last year’s semifinal, will take on Canada’s Felix Auger-Aliassime in the next round.
