Marcel Granollers faced a monumental task on Monday in his opening-round matchup against Novak Djokovic at the French Open, but for one point at least, the Spaniard got the better of the world's second-ranked player.

After losing the first two sets, Granollers was down 2-1 in the third and engaged in a lengthy rally with Djokovic. The defending champion appeared to take the point with a cross-court drop shot, but Granollers chased it down to hit an incredible around-the-net winner.

Djokovic couldn't help but congratulate Granollers with a celebratory high-five following the point.
