(Reuters) - Defending Monte Carlo champion and world number one Novak Djokovic suffered his earliest tournament defeat for three years when 55th-ranked Czech Jiri Vesely beat him in the second round of the Masters tournament on Wednesday.
Vesely won 6-4 2-6 6-4 in what was his first meeting with the Serb. It was the 22-year-old's maiden victory against a top-10 opponent after eight previous failures.
