Croatian tennis player Ivan Dodig and his American partner Austin Krajicek emerged victorious in the men’s doubles final of this year’s Roland Garros against Belgians Sander Gille and Joran Vliegen.
Dodig and Krajicek triumphed with a convincing 2-0 (6-3, 6-1) victory in just one hour and 21 minutes to win the 2023 French Open men’s doubles title.
This was the third French Open final for the Croatian player. In 2015, he claimed the title with Marcelo Melo, and in 2022, he reached the final alongside Krajicek.
Previously, he also tasted success at the Australian Open, partnering with Slovak Filip Polašek.
