Novak Djokovic's projected path to Hellenic Championship 2025 Final

Novak Djokovic has won only one title this year.
Since Novak Djokovic shifted to Greece earlier this year, it was nearly confirmed that the Serbian tennis star will play in the Hellenic Championship 2025. The 24-time Grand Slam champion won his only title on the tour in Geneva earlier this year. Meanwhile, his last title in 2024 was his long-awaited Olympic gold medal.
Nevertheless, in the Greek capital, Djokovic is arguably the top favourite to win the title. On that note, let’s take a look at the 38-year-old’s projected path to the Hellenic Championship 2025 final.
Novak Djokovic’s projected draw at Hellenic Championship 2025
First round: Bye
Djokovic has been seeded first in the tournament, receiving a bye as the top seed.
Second round: Alejandro Tabilo
The Serbian tennis star stunned Chile’s Alejandro Tabilo in straight sets. Djokovic recorded a huge victory in the Greek capital, marking his first win over Tabilo.
Earlier, Djokovic lost to Tabilo in Rome last year and Monte Carlo in April earlier this year. With the win, Novak Djokovic has advanced to the quarter-finals.

Quarterfinals: Nuno Borges
In the third round, Djokovic is set to face Portuguese tennis star Nuno Borges, who defeated Eliot Spizzirri in the second round to secure a spot in the quarter-finals. The sixth seed will face 24-time Grand Slam champion in the subsequent round. The two will face each other for the first time on the tour.
Semifinals: Brandon Nakashima
Still in the second round, Brandon Nakashima will face compatriot Marcos Giron before reaching the quarter-finals.
In the last eight, he would have to lock horns against Yannick Hanfmann or Vít Kopřiva before securing a spot in the semi-finals. Brandon Nakashima and Djokovic have also not faced each other on the tour before.
Final: Lorenzo Musetti
In the summit clash, Djokovic is likely to clash against Italian tennis star Lorenzo Musetti. The Wimbledon semi-finalist also received a bye in the first round and will have three-time Grand Slam champion Stan Wawrinka in the subsequent fixture.
However, before reaching the final, he would have to defeat the likes of Sebastian Korda and Luciano Darderi. Djokovic and Musetti have faced each other nine times on the tour, and the Serb has recorded the victory eight times.
Who will Novak Djokovic face in his first match at Hellenic Championship 2025?
Djokovic, who has received an opening-round bye, will start his campaign in the last 16 against Alejandro Tabilo of Chile.
Who are Novak Djokovic’s projected opponents in the Hellenic Championship 2025 draw?
Djokovic will face Alejandro Tabilo (R16), Nuno Borges (QF), while he could also potentially come up against Brandon Nakashima (SF) and Lorenzo Musetti (F).
Has Novak Djokovic won the Helleic Championship previously?
