How is djokovic's serve still seen as an underrated aspect of his game? He's had a brilliant serve for years
True story!
Since 2011, really. More than 13 years ago!
No one is really talking about this but I have a feeling nerves will play a bigger role here, particularly for Alcaraz. He doesn’t want to lose to the 37yr old who just had knee surgery.
Alcaraz will be firm fav this year. Last year he was not! It could play a role lets see.
It’s hard to talk about nerves with a kid who is three and oh, and major finals
@@amylundy8664 Well, as Carlos himself has admitted he feels nervous on center court, no where else except the time he faced Novak in the 2023 FO SF (and cramped). they were a factor in set 1 vs Medvedev but he (and his team) are more than aware that novak isn't the rest of the field to put it mildly, so he will have nerves but he will also be on guard. as will novak. i do believe novak has a slight edge, but its 50/50 as all their matches have demonstrated. And I'm sure he will draw from his experience last year
@@z1az285 if Novak had to play de Minaur, with the extra match play to get in proper form, I'd say Novak would be a clear favorite. he still is my favorite to win against Alcaraz, just not as clear if he had that one more match under his belt.
however, what most people are not talking about are the windy conditions of last yea, one can think of it whatever he/she wants but strong windy conditions like that have a super negative impact on Novak due to his style of play, whenenver such conditions occured, he almost always lost against elite opponents. if it weren't for that I wouldn't have been surprised with a straight or 4 set easy victory for Novak.
Djokovic will have more stress because he wants the 25th grandslam. Wimbledon this year is his best chance , one more year and all the youngsters will be on top game
its so soothing to listen and watch how you all analyse so well, especially Amy🤗. I saw Novak's press conference, there is some kind of positive vibes in his Face and expressions. He is thinking in big picture. I hope Novak lifts this title. idemooo
Yes! I saw the same 🙏🏻
@@amylundy8664 you can always tell by novak's eyes and speech what his energy and attitude is.. he's looked much more positive, focused and elevated above all the records and history this year and isnt pushing. No doubt he wants to break records, but he kind of dodged it in the press conference when asked about tying roger's record. it almost feels like he knows getting to the final at all this year is a blessing and he isnt putting as much pressure on himself to win but knows he can if he can serve well and keep the level up. I think if he can stay in that mindset of gratitude instead of feeling like hes still proving something - he can win. Last year there was a heaviness and stress about him even though he was winning more. I think all the things that happened out of his control this year was the "yoga" he needed to let go a little of the pressure he puts on himself. And he will be the underdog so that always bodes well for him.
@@alanahk Most people are unaware of this but Novak was under huge pressure to win last year, and that burden was probably the main reason he didn't. Yes, he is one of the mentally most tough players there is, but there is always the limit. The media especially here in Britain put the hype in overdrive. They all but pronounced him a winner before the match. So you are right, this time he'll be in much better mental position to play. But on the other hand, he's a year older and I think last year was his last peak. He still has incredible game and I believe he still has good chance to win if he plays his best :)
@@yanair2091 completely agree last year was his physical peak ( I paid $800 to see him play fritz in the quarters at the US open bc I knew it) but alcaraz has more chaos in his game, so if Novak serves well and strikes clean he can win. But if any of that drops it is probably Carlos;s to lose. I dont think he will cry like. he did last year thought bc I genuinely dont feel he feels as much pressure. I think he may feel its a cool challenge for him to see if he can win with the knee and of course he wants to win, but It feels like hes let go of the pressure to win everything as a measure of his worth and also knows hes not the outright favorite.
Both them, although Gill is ny favorite by far, ao eloquent and educated
If Djokovic wins another slam after this, he will be the oldest player to win a slam.
@@XTiDesignTutor well he won’t. Alcaraz has his number.
@@johnnelson3665Djokovic is leading 3:2 in H2H against Alcaraz
If he wins this slam on sunday he will be the oldest. He's already passed Ken Rosewall in age when he won his last.
@@technodrome6772because of cramps . No cramps no party for that fraud . Alcaraz will demolish him tommorow and take his wife
@@jasonk7003 He won't, so you don't need to worry about that statistic !
I wish we could've seen how Federer would've dealt with Alcaraz
He would’ve got smoked
Federer was too old. Alcaraz would have found a way (Fed fan).
Fed would have used the serve and forehand.. Federer game is best placed to beat Alcaraz.
@@denisdaly1708 I don't disagree but Fed post 2019 was having problems with power hitters. Watch his matches against Theim.
I wasn't really expecting Novak to make the final, but I look forward to watching Sunday's match here in Serbia. 🇷🇸
Thanks for the analysis!
Thanks 🙏🏻
We appreciate you watching
We can not say that Novak Djokovic is tennis player.He is more combination between artist and scientists.Like Rachmaninov in body of Charles Darwin.It’s fascinating that soon he is now playing agains 4 generations,when we saw next year kids 16-17 years old.People of his age have already middle age crisis and can not easily get up from the bad.When we realize that he was paying with Marat Sapin,Andy Roderick and Lieyton Hewitt and he is going to be in Wimbledon final tomorrow is hilarious.And probably he is only player in all sports that have intellectual and verbal capabilities that after finish playing tennis will easily finish law or medical school.What a persona…..
From the future😊
😂😂😂You Novak fans sound so ridiculous from outside. He got annihilated by Carlitos
I think Novak needed the motivation that he was lacking at the beginning of the year, and he got one. I hope he will win, even if that is his last one! It would be an epic proportion this one!
Alcaraz is the Favourite, defending champion, aged 21, Brilliant player. Crowd Favourite. Novak is 24 times GS champion, aged 37, recovering with knee surgery. Novak will win.
WRONG GENIUS...LOL
@@anneryan2563 wrong, do you know novak lost? easy draw came back to bite him , like FO 2011 SF
like 2016 US open.
Please adjust the screen to show Ms. Amy Lundy's name .. perhaps reduce the yellow 3 logo.
The "us nerds" was funny.
Thanks for your great videos.
Haha thanks 🤓
Finally. Worth of waiting. Thank you ❤
Thank you 🙏🏻
The people who were saying will nole win another major were just dumb to be honest. These people were acting like nole was losing in the first and second rounds of majors. I think the tennis world needs to learn how to chill out some. The way they react is so over the top.
Yeah, it's like those people saying in January that Djokovic would win the Golden Calendar Grand Slam in 2024 - that was very dumb!
Djokovic is yet to win a major in 11 months . In fact he hasn't even beaten a top 10 player this year. I predict alcaraz to unofficially retire him on sunday
Doesn't look like those ppl are so dumb after all!🤣 Today could easily be Novak's last Slam final!
I just wish he wins #25 and #8. Dont care if he doesnt win a slam from here on if he can get this.
Bro has been saying this for every slam😂😂. Dopovic has had enough luck already
The"problem" with Alcaraz, for both him and his opponents, is the fact that he is a living chaos of tennis. The guy has no plan ans tactics and that is very hard to play for him but also very hard to play against, you cant prepare against chaos. The fact that Alacarz can somewhat control that chaos is why he is so hard to beat, but on the other hand Djokovic is like a best calibrated machine that knows exactly what he is doing. If you asked me at this point of their careers who has a higher peak game, its probably Alacaraz. On the other hand Novak can play his peak game for a much longer period of time on the court, Alacarz has had many lows during this Wimbledon and its expected in the final that he has at least 1 or 2 sets where Novaks 80-90% will be enough to win them. I also know that there wilk be at least 1-2 sets where Alcaraz will peak his game and will be at 120%. Feels like all in all we will have 2 lower level sets from Alcaraz and 2 incredible Alcaraz sets and 1 set that will be the decider where both players will be at around 90%. Incredible contrast of styles, robotic % game vs chaotic mix of power and talent.
Because he relies on coaching too much, kind of BS that tennis allows this now.
@@AmateurSynthusiast you are both stupid
not chaos but unpredictable
@@AmateurSynthusiastdeal with it
120 % doesn't exist
djuuko is 70 % of last year in movement
we will see 👊
Djokovic will win , he plays very clean, aggressive , knows what is the chalenge, last year that drop shot was a killer- he will be mych more careful with his shots- Alkaraz wasnt too dominating at all- Tiafu almost beat him - Novak is a fresher player- he will win becouse he is very focused
djuuuko will attack the net more I think
🤣
The facts are that Carlos hasnt looked too good the whole tournament , 5 sets with Tiafoe who Novak would destroy in straight sets , losing first set to both Paul and Meddy , while Novak won his last 2 matches in straight sets , if Carlos has a slow start he will quickly find himself down 2 sets , Novak simply underestimated Carlos last year and it cost him the title , a mistake he won’t commit twice !!
I mean draws have to matter when you make comparisons like this. Alcaraz played a top 15 and a top 5 player and still looked extremely good in the final sets of those matches. Idc how musetti’s grass season was it’s still his first gs semi and Nole didn’t even have to play a quarterfinal. Given the Nole dropped a set to Fearnley you can’t guarantee that he would’ve beaten Tiafoe in straights cuz he never had to play someone near that level with that style
And Alcaraz has had the experience of a Wimbledon final and win. As he said he will always be nervous on center court, but he will be better prepared this time. One thing is certain, it will be a battle. Alcaraz is not musetti. Period
Agreed.
Carlos was lucky at that day
@@kingnole4237 Winners make their own luck. I don't care if it's Novak or Carlos. Simple as that
You can always tell by novak's eyes and speech what his energy and attitude is.. he's looked much more positive, focused and elevated above all the records and history this year and isnt pushing. No doubt he wants to break records, but he kind of dodged it in the press conference when asked about tying roger's record. it almost feels like he knows getting to the final at all this year is a blessing and he isnt putting as much pressure on himself to win but knows he can if he can serve well and keep the level up.

No one beats Novak twice in a row in the same tournament 🤷🏾♂️
@@linford545 we will find out

@@z1az285carlos is not unbeatable either
@@rajeshsmusical Totally, no one said Carlos is unbeatable. As he himself said, he feels nervous on center court and has taken time to settle in but he has experienced a center court Wimbledon final, so hopefully he will be locked in. Nothing less will work vs Novak. Did I ever imply otherwise? Incidentally Carlos can serve big and returns extremely well. So both will have their hands full. What are you smoking?
When will u all learn...in about 2015 Novak reached GOD mode. That means barring injury, and lack of motivation, if he wants something he gets it 9/10 times.
I am not guaranteeing slam wins, but when Novak says slams are a priority don't count him out. It was obvious the motivation was back at RG.
Hoping Novak gets 25 on Sunday....as he says, Alcaraz has a lot more time to get other slams 🙂
He's 37+ now....

This volley discussion toward the end...I am not sure that it was convincing enough, at least for me. Anyway, thanks for the video! Looking forward to the final.
You know there are some interesting things Novak has said of late. One was during the semi final victory - his story about being a kid with a dream - normally reserved for when he wins a slam - I think he lacked belief that he could win Wimbledon even before the final started, and pre-empted his speech. Secondly, the use of the present tense to talk about his tennis in general, rather than specifically the alcaraz match. He said "I am a step behind" or something similar, post match. He knows this is about more than just the knee and the final.
If Novak is fully fit and agile, He will win. There is no wind factor to help Carlos this year. Hope the legend makes more history 🙏💪
People forget Novak was a set point away from going 2-0 last year, should of been straight sets. Then the win picks up and Novak loses focus
Not me. Novak is the GOAT but in my mind it's time for him to move on. This is the Sinner/Alcaraz era. I'm ready for a change 🤨
And a lot will depend on how Carlos serves and returns. Most important, Carlos cannot afford lapses.
I think if Novak serves 70-75 % first serves in he will win!
@@andrewadams6081 Yeah, definitely. Carlos served 35% first serves in set 1 vs Medvedev. If he does that, he will get hammered. So, he has to raise his level. Be locked in, from point one
I have favored Novak this year. I don't think he is coming tired like he did last time from a brutal RG win and then a lot of of trouble getting to the final here. Seems this time Alcaraz is coming with a lot of mileage and has faced many 5 setters and long matches in the last 5 weeks.
Also don't think wind is going to be as big of a factor as last yr. On the downside Alcaraz might not come in as nervous as last year, rewarding a set, but he hasn't been at his best, serving a big bad but has bailed himself out with good 2nd serves, and Novak ofc has the knee problem, have not seen how he fares in a long match, but still gotta go with Novak
@@aurei7775 good points, Alcaraz has a lot of mileage but not as much as you state. Remember he has hardly played in the clay season due to injury and saved himself for the FO, yes he played two five setters there but that was the semi and final. Also, didn't play much at queens and while he has played more than Novak has plenty of grass court match play (sets played). Novak has more in the tank but has he faced opponents like Medvedev? So it's a trade off. Carlos has to focus on every point though
@@z1az285 Yes but Alcaraz did not play these events for a reason and could see he is nowhere near 100%, serving sticks out which is needed on grass & there is still question marks on Alcaraz when he is in these brutal matches, how he will handle himself. Novak is fresh and knowing novak he is ready to die for that slam. I see him just going into overdrive mode, I think he also realized playing the endurance game with Alcaraz does not work, he will go all out on every point and try to win asap and give no breathing room for alcaraz, i think he will leverage his freshness for this match, he still has way more experience, Alcaraz tends to come into nervous into matches, let's see if his knee and all holds up because losing is just not an option for him, I see lots of running from both players, and Novak just has to make sure the knee and legs are fine
@@aurei7775 He is serving at 132 mph, the serve speed is not an issue. But he has definitely put a few more hours than last year, which was no cakewalk. he had tough battles with jarry and berretini. we will see how both rise to the occasion but one fact is certain. Carlos cannot afford cheap errors and yes novak will definitely go into full attack mode. we will see how carlos responds
@@z1az285 Watched every Alcaraz game and he seems quite far from his best and very vulnerable. I..e even in the Humbrt match apprently humbert had more total points, shows that Alcaraz needs to outclutch to win. Like this podcast also said it's not about playing harder but smarter, and I think Alcaraz will get better but he still plays real hard to win and it has shown to be costly many times, and i would not be surprised if it will come to haunt him here if not the USO. With Novak he also learns from matches, i.e struggles vs new comers a lot, even vs that Fearnley guy, and I think Novak that has the best team of medical experients, statisticians, tacticicians will find weaknesses and learn from last yrs defeat, which i believe was the 1st time they played on grass. Also wind was a factor, not sure how many it will be this time, and novak has a pretty bad track record in very windy conditions
@@aurei7775 Actually this is what JCF said about the upcoming match..."Even so, Ferrero considers Djokovic the favourite, despite the fact that he has recently recovered from a meniscus operation, which forced him to retire from Roland Garros.
“If we’re realistic, because of the experience he has of these kinds of finals and the number of titles he has at Wimbledon, the favourite is Djokovic,” Ferrero said. “Obviously, we know the potential Carlos has. In the team, we like to think that if Carlos plays well he will make things very difficult for Novak, but we know Djokovic’s level. Even on bad days he knows what to do and how to come through those problems, so we’re expecting a very high level in the match from Novak.”

@@move3spaces246 wrong
Twice wrong!The Novtards will be going to bed early tonight!😂
Did not go to 4.
Let’s go Novak 💪💪💪💪
Joel, a slice is offense when the opponent has no effective consistent slice themselves, or poor net game. It's often a setup shot in those scenarios for aggression, li Fed used to do oh so often.
But against Novak, he can deal with that slice with just as good, likely better one himself when compared to Mussetti....and even with a drop shot or aggressive backhand.
The slices the Italian produced, rarely created offense against Novak...hence the Gill argument that it kind of came across as defensive.
Gonna be like in the semis at the AO, this year. He hasn't played anyone of high level in six months...
Are you going to do another show discussing the Wimby Finals?
Djokovic is not a marvel of modern medicine. He's a marvel of holistic medicine, only using modern medicine when absolutely necessary.
Yes if it's modern medicine then Nadal recovered too 😊
@@kingnole4237 Nadal & Djokovic are at opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to how they approach medical matters. Nadal had no issue with listening to the so called experts who recommended getting multiple countermeasure injections, whereas Djokovic said no.
What novax drug drink 🍻
Joel carlos fan boy because he was a rafa fan ha ha
Better than a novax
He was disqualified from the US Open because he accidentally hit the referee. They invited him, let him enter Australia, then imprisoned him and deported him.
They did not let him enter and play in the USA. At Roland Garros they put him to play from 11 pm to 4 am. Then, when he complained that it was slippery, they didn't want to wet the clay, so he got hurt. He has been playing in a hostile atmosphere for 20 years. Why? Because he is from small, freedom-loving Serbia, because he is not a globalist model, but a brave heart with a free soul. Enough is enough.
HE HAS A TRIGGER TEMPER. U.S. OPEN MADE THE RIGHT CALL. THREW A RACKET INTO STANDS AT OLYMPICS. HE'S DANGEROUS.
Enough with the victim complex.
@@Spacejuno No, that's their neocolonial manner, they used to behave like that for centuries.
Winner of set will win in 3
Nailed it brotha!
I don't have a concern about no top 10 win or a title this year.
However, I do have concerns about Djokovic's long point recovery and rally tolerance.
Lower body injury means no cardio leading up to the tournament.
3-4 wks of just rehab means cardio wise he'll be at a disadvantage.
Sinner (hip) felt that in the 5th at RG and Novak will struggle here.
Also, thought he was a bit slow in and out of the corners and Carlos' ball will have alot more heat than Musetti's did.
Plus for Novak, Carlos has dips so I see Novak getting at least a set but ultimately won't be lifting the trophy.
I recognised Joel's voice in the Musetti press conference right away
Musetti did frustrate Djokovic with his defense today, slicing the ball back deep. At some points Djokovic was rushing and trying to finish the rallies quicker but ended up making errors.
There was no way hothead Musett was winning the match. Like pathetic Rune and his terrible "effort," the match was over from the beginning.
muuseti was awful
@@edkiely2712 Easily said after it was over but it was closer than the match vs Rune for sure. If Musetti won set 2, who knows what’s gonna happen. But overall Djokovic was a bit better in rallies he would grind out Musetti anyway.
@@jonasbertilbellander so every player that lost to Djokovic was awful. Say something better.
@tehatte "If the bullfrog had wings he could fly!" "If Roger executed one more ace/point, he'd be a 9x Wimbledon champion!" Novak was never in jeopardy of losing control against the hot-headed Musetti, let alone in danger of losing the match!
Djokovic is in better shape than last year's Djokovic at Wimbledon
No
Could be !
Wrong. Unfortunately he seems slower and less powerfull. 2023 Novak was a beast
Last year Djokovic served bad in final hope this will not repeat
@@kingnole4237 Djokovic didn't serve "bad". Alcaraz returned everything
I think Joel is right. Musetti wasn't simply relying on defense. He used short slices in combination with big redirected top spin strokes to move Fritz and Novak around the court.
I hope Novak wins. I loved his comment that he will cheer for Alcaraz 😂 Always looking for a psychological kink / advantage
What a great tennis show! I just learn and enjoy a lot watching the three of you talking about this noble sport!
Really want Alcaraz to win Wimbledon tomorrow. I think Alcaraz has a point to prove tomorrow. I think Alcaraz is going to make a statement tomorrow. I feel it will be a 4 set match tomorrow for whoever wins.
Carlitos will win 🏆
Novak has been improving from match to match, and he will need to improve some more for the next match against Carlos. Not only must he improve, but he needs to find a way of beating Carlos in 4 sets. If this match goes to a deciding set, Novak will be in trouble. I am obviously a Novak fan, but I have to give the edge to Carlos in this match. I hope I am wrong.
His birthday is in Madrid 💀 26:25
May
The contrast was indeed apparent, nay evident. Whilst Nole made the elegant edifice called Lorenzo look rather ordinary, he wasn't the same experienced craftsman on the day against Carlitos - his unparalleled patterns deserted him, his giant leaps to the net did make him look like a flurried Prince of Grass (Fedex hasn't been dethroned yet!) attempting to throw a spanner in the works but alas! Weren't we told at a Quantum Physics class that the past, no matter how grand and imposing, is powerless against an unknown present moment - in this case, Carlitos. The experience of 10 Wimby finals did not come to his rescue, why just why!
The best ever 'return-er' of serve was left clutching at straws! Time remains a trickster. It's time for Novak to hear his own words - "He has nothing to lose." Frankly, Novak has indeed nothing to lose, nothing to prove to anyone. With a strapped knee and age against him, he shone in the third set like the champion that he has come to be! This loss will not crush his spirit nor rush him into oblivion. On the contrary, he will make a mark on clay - Olympics, no less, and move like a gazelle at Flushing Meadows! Patience! ❤🔥🎾

And in first half of 2018 Novak hasn't beaten any big opponent, also at Wimbledon in his first 5 matches. Then he beat Rafa in semis (who won Roland Garros 5 weeks before).
Hope Novak can do similar thing tomorrow.
I rarely comment on videos, but people need to stop marvelling at Novak's recovery from a simple partial meniscectomy!
Why your stomach is burning 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵
Exactly! While ANY surgery is a hurdle to overcome; as Dr. Sutterer pointed out, Novak playing, and playing well, is not to be seen as some "miracle comeback." Listening to ESPN and other analysts, you'd think he had a heart transplant!
Well the pressure is all on the kid. The last time a match was played with such age difference - leaving aside last year's Wimbledon and French open - was between Connnors and Rosewall way back in 1974. Connors destroyed Rosewall in that match.
Novak is not only 16 years older than Alcaraz, he has been out of form this year. To compound his misery, he had a meniscus tear and a surgery. Most expected him - particularly very jealous Fedal fans - not to play this Wimbledon. But he disappointed them playing and frustrated them reaching the finals.
There is no excuse for the kid to lose to this weakened version of Novak; he should win it in straight sets; if it goes to 4, it will be a crime; if it goes to 5th it will be a disgrace; if Novak wins it will be utter abomination for the kid and he should quit tennis for good .😂😂😂😂
pressure is a......interesting thing djuuko will feel it guaranteed 😅
Mission accomplished, Alcaraz iced him in three. Djokovic did have one good game though, it was the one where Carlos hit some DF's haha.

Against Alcaraz, it will be a problem
Novak is not medvedev
Looks like he was worse!🤣
So, I do disagree with Nole not being tested though. Don’t those 2 grueling come from behind 5 set wins at Roland Garros count? I mean come on. That’s what defines Djokovic and it was on his least favorite surface where he had to absolutely grind. I truly believe those 2 huge wins were massive misses in your assessment. Thoughts?
RG is not wimbledon

The Djokovic story thus far is his joke of a draw. Alcaraz has beaten players with a combined 14,201 ranking points, Djokovic just 9,530, and if you pull out the de Minaur walkover, 5,700 points. Alcaraz should win on Sunday--it would be the just result.
Great research
Alcaraz will win.
IDEMOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Novak is not winning since he stopped going to the bathroom at the end of 2nd/3rd/4th set.
Let us just leave it at coincidence.
Touch, yes Alcaraz has edge....but overall net game??? Are we watching the same players. Djokovic right now one level above Alcaraz there.... certainly Alcaraz has potential to exceed that in the coming years because Djokovic started developing the net game so late in his career....but right now, no way is Alcaraz better at net when it comes to using it as a strategy....maybe reactionary net game given his touch....but who uses net game primarily in this reactionary way??
When it comes to using it as a weapon, Djokovic has the level up imo
djoko touch is below alca ,cry more

Whoever doubted him is a fool. Djoker is the dark lord of optimization, absorbing any god's ability and leaving behind shrivelled dead space where there is no light and is vacuum. Roger's last remaining records are never safe. He better stay hidden in the hotel.
Dark lord got beeitch-slapped and told not come around center court ever again!🤣

novak will win🎉
Go Carlitos Win!🏆
Nole 25❤!!!
Alcaraz hasnt looked good u guys are not seeing that
If Tiafoe hadn’t choked…
Ruuuunne was Useless
Nope! We aren't seeing it brotha!🤣
@@sciagurrato1831tiafo didn't choke alcaraz had to hit crazy game winners just to win the Tiebreaker... It wasn't like Tiafo was serving for the match then made a lot of errors no alcaraz in the 4th and 5th set was serving much better and was also not making a lot of errors that's why he won.
Hi @gill good preview again! But I notice that this time the Wimbledon main courts are far less greener than ever before.. and also the skidding and speeds seems way slower... is it done to suit Alcaraz????????
❤💯👍
Really? He has menisectomy knee surgery and two weeks later he's moving like this, and you guys aren't at least a tiny bit suspicious about the the speed of the recovery? Is there a signle example in the history of sports where someone recovered this quick with purely legal, natural treatment?
Djokovic knows a lot about holistic medicine. It's on the fringes because modern mainstream medicine, which is basically the big pharmaceutical corporations, see it as a threat to their dominance & they are constantly attacking it & trying to make it illegal.
@@iya3757 I mean, yeah that's true. There's something that just feels weird about this recovery speed.
Lol sure you must be a Rafa fan. Why would you doubt Novak for any suspicious stuff? He literally gave up the USO and AO so as to not take an experimental "vaccine". He could've taken it and won those tournaments. Or him being who he is could've produced a fake certificate and got entry (cos the so called vaccine didn't prevent one from getting the disease). He didn't do either.
And it's not just sudden recovery. He has primed his body to be this efficient for over a decade now.
It's really sad to see haters clutch on to vague things to discredit Novak but will not utter a single word when Roidal was clearly using stuff.
Federer or Nadal fan! Another conspiracy?
I had the same knee surgery on both knees same time and was walking 2 days later. It’s not a big surgery at all
😂😂😂
Novak is going to win, he's in GOD ( gooood) mode😊
Looks like Lee will be going to bed early tonight!🤣
Why there is name of Roger and Rafa ???
Novak overtakes them long time ago...so stupid
Carlos didn't have a tough draw either. Novak tough guys were eliminated early. Even Alex was not a threat to Novak and pkayers do get walk over and now Novak git one and it's a big deal. People always watched Novak draw and make a big deal about and sickening guys. What did Novak do to all of you. Just stop it.
Djokovic will win , he plays very clean, aggressive , knows what is the chalenge, last year that drop shot was a killer- he will be mych more careful with his shots- Alkaraz wasnt too dominating at all- Tiafu almost beat him - Novak is a fresher player- he will win becouse he is very focused
how to defend Vs alca drop shot you mean ?
alca didn't saw tired at all
Looks like Stefan will be going to bed early tonight and throwing his crystal ball against the wall!🤣
@@edkiely2712 lol exactly ,he Stefan has no clue about this
