Novak beat Salvatore Caruso 6-3 6-3 6-2 and reached the fourth round of the French Open on Saturday.
Novak: “Caruso was very motivated. I thought he stepped into the court having a clear game plan, attacking the ball from both the forehand and backhand. He was hitting his backhand very, very good, very solid. He actually pleasantly surprised me with his game. I had to change my tactics quite a bit throughout the match. Midway through the match I stepped it up a little bit and I took my game to a different level, which then resulted with an easier third set. It was a straight-sets win, but… it was tougher than the score indicated.”

New Delhi : Spain's Rafael Nadal on Thursday secured his place in the French Open semifinals with a 4-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-2 win over Argentina's Diego Schwartzman in a three hour and 42 minute long quarterfinal which was played over two days due to a rain delay.
On Wednesday, heavy rain interrupted the clash after almost two hours, yet before the rain delay the tennis world was shocked, watching a venerable Achilles, Nadal, dropping a set at Roland Garros for the first time since 2015, reports Efe.
Yet in the second set, Nadal fought back to a 5-3 lead and all seemed to be returning to normal when the players stopped play because of the rain.
On Thursday their match resumed, normalcy reigned supreme and Nadal proceeded to obliterate Schwartzman at the Philippe Chatrier main court.
In the upcoming round, the 10-time French Open Champion Nadal is set to take on Argentina's Juan Martin del Potro, who knocked out Croatia's Marin Cilic 7-6 (7-5), 5-7, 6-3, 7-5.
