With the successful completion of the Monte Carlo Masters 2021, it’s time for the Serbian Open 2021. Even though Serbian player Miomir Kecmanovic didn’t play well at the Monte Carlo Masters, he’ll hope to play well at his home tournament now. Interestingly, World No.1 Novak Djokovic will also be playing at the Serbian Open 2021 as well.

“I don’t really have that much pressure to be that. He achieved so much, he achieved something that’s almost impossible to get to that,” Kecmanovic told EssentiallySports.
