Yearly summary
Early hard court season
World Tennis Championship
Novak Djokovic started the season by playing the World Tennis Championship, an exhibition tournament on the last week of 2018. He defeated Karen Khachanov and Kevin Anderson to win the tournament for a record-tying fourth time.
Qatar Open
Djokovic's first official tournament was the Qatar Open. He reached the semifinals by defeating Damir Džumhur, Márton Fucsovics and Nikoloz Basilashvili, but lost in three sets to eventual champion Roberto Bautista Agut.[1]
Australian Open
Djokovic entered the Australian Open as the top seed. He defeated qualifier Mitchell Krueger, 2008 finalist Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, 25th seed Denis Shapovalov, 15th seed Daniil Medvedev, 8th seed Kei Nishikori, and 28th seed Lucas Pouille to reach the final, in which he beat 2nd seed Rafael Nadal in straight sets to win his 15th Major and a record 7th Australian Open.
Indian Wells Masters
Djokovic's next tournament was the Indian Wells Masters, where he received a first round bye along with 31 seeded players. He won his first match since Australian Open title against Bjorn Fratangelo, but was defeated in two sets by Philipp Kohlschreiber in the third round.[2]
Miami Open
After his early exit at Indian Wells, Djokovic played at the Miami Open where he had previously won six times. After defeating Bernard Tomic and Federico Delbonis, Djokovic faced Roberto Bautista Agut. Djokovic won the first set and went a break up in second set, before a rain delay that seemingly disrupted his momentum. Djokovic eventually lost the match in three sets. After 41 straight wins, it was the first time Djokovic had lost in Miami after winning the first set. After the match, Djokovic admitted being affected by off-court distractions during the tournament.[3]
Clay Court Season
Monte Carlo Masters
Djokovic's clay court season will commence at the Monte Carlo Masters, which will be played in the third week of April.[4] Djokovic received an opening round bye, and made his clay court debut against Philipp Kohlschreiber in the second round. Djokovic won a tight three-setter, prevailing 6-3, 4-6, 6-4.
