Novak Djokovic gets ready to kick off his grass court season

Defending champion Novak Djokovic will be entering Wimbledon on the back of a disappointing campaign at the French Open, outfoxed by his arch rival Rafael Nadal 6-2, 4-6, 6-2, 7-6(4) in the quarterfinals. The Serb has not played any matches since and will be looking to prepare for the grasscourt Major by participating in the Giorgio Armani Tennis Classic, an exhibition event that's held at the Hurlingham Club in London.

Djokovic is set to play two matches at the event, with his first being against World No. 9 Felix Auger-Aliassime. The Canadian has looked in decent form this season and will be coming off a semifinal run at the Rosmalen Grass Court Championship and a quarterfinal exit at the Halle Open.

Auger-Aliassime and the Pole matched each other's shots throughout the contest, which lasted for an hour and 48 minutes. The 21-year old couldn't hold his nerve in the closing stages of both sets and lost two gruelling tie-breaks 7-6(2), 7-6(4) to hand Hurkacz the win.

Auger-Aliassime has a 74 percent success ratio on grass and will present a good test for the five-time Wimbledon champion.

He won his first ATP title by outwitting Stefanos Tsitsipas in the final of the Rotterdam Open. The 21-year-old also made the last eight at the Barcelona Open, Madrid Open and Rome Masters during the claycourt season.
