Novak Djokovic will take on Taylor Fritz in the third-place playoff at the 2025 Six Kings Slam in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Saturday, October 18. Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner will compete in the final later that day.
World No. 4 Fritz and World No. 5 Djokovic were two of the six participants in the Six Kings Slam exhibition event. Fritz got the better of Alexander Zverev in the quarterfinal, while Djokovic received a bye straight into the semifinal.
The American faced Alcaraz in the semifinal, with the Spaniard also receiving a bye into the last four. The World No. 1 was dominant, cruising to a 6-4, 6-2 victory to book his spot in the final.
On the other side, Djokovic met World No. 2 Sinner, who had earlier defeated Stefanos Tsitsipas in the quarterfinal. Sinner has now beaten the 38-year-old Serb five straight times on tour, and this exhibition match was no exception, as he sealed another 6-4, 6-2 win. As a result, Fritz and Djokovic advanced to the third-place playoff.
