Novak Djokovic went down in straight sets to Hubert Hurkacz on Friday, exiting the Shanghai Masters in his first match after memorably winning the China Open this week.
Hurkacz, the 2023 Shanghai champion and world number 34, beat Djokovic 6-4, 6-3 in the second round as the 39-year-old faltered against his big-serving opponent a decade his junior.
The former world number one turned in a disappointing performance just three days after claiming the 102nd professional title of his career in Beijing, where he has never lost a match.
