Former champion Novak Djokovic posted another straight-sets win at the French Open on Wednesday to reach the third round of the clay-court tournament. Facing Spanish qualifier Jaume Munar, the Serb delivered a solid display to prevail 7-6 (1), 6-4, 6-4 and move into the third round for the 13th time.
Despite the victory, Djokovic found some faults with his performance.
"I went through my ups and downs, and not really satisfied with my performance," Djokovic said after the match. "I just played enough in the right moments to win the match. So hopefully the level will increase and will get better in the next match."
After making 16 unforced errors in losing the first set, Simona Halep stormed back to beat Alison Riske in the first round of the French Open.
Djokovic, who underwent right elbow surgery earlier this year, is the 20th-seeded player in Paris, his lowest Grand Slam seeding since the 2006 US Open.
He said he feels "comfortable" and his elbow isn't giving him problems thus far, but he knows he can play beter.
"At the moment, I'm not playing at the level I wish to," Djokovic said. "But at the same time, I understand that it is the process that obviously takes time. And I'm trying to not give up and create the best out of this situation and circumstances that I'm in."
