We have to believe in Novak Djokovic

Djokovic - Alcaraz : 4-3
Murray - Alcaraz : 1-1
Djokovic - JCF : 2-1
Murray - JCF : 3-0

Total : 10-5

If Djokovic losses it will be really sad and a huge upset here.
 
It's a win win situation for Djokovic. It doesn't matter what happens. It's all icing on the cake from this point. All pressure is on Alcaraz and the youngsters.

No, these are last few opportunities for Novak . Plus he has not got any majors after Sinneraz arrived. It will be a statement if he wins here.
 
I do think we are undermining contribution of the high profile coaches.

When we talk of major counts, we need to factor in how many people were responsible for the joint effort.
 
Spanish RG champ, brutal power , movement , kick serve dropshots
Those skills haven't been reflected in the results though. He's been better at Wimbledon than RG. Grass is where all his drop shots and touch game at the net have paid off. Not to mention his ability to hit winners at will with that power from the baseline.

He vacuums up 250s and 500s on clay, but he's been MIA at Monte-Carlo and Rome. The fast Madrid clay is the only Masters he's had success at.

That is completely his problem.

He is young so I will not extrapolate his results 1 to 1.
 
Dude dude dude dude dude

One step at a time. Let's not make any assumptions. Sinner can lose due to heat. Zed can definitely lose. There are no guarantees.

What is guaranteed is raz is first. So let's set 100% on this match.
Eh think sinner is a lock for the final unless Shelton or sonego somehow zones for 5 sets on day match. QF with de minaur will be guaranteed night as broadcaster will want everyone to watch the home boy. Can't forget that Shelton beat sinner in shanghai around when sinner started his prime.

If this becomes a 5hr war and if could well be that given the time of night they are playing (madness) then basically Zverev will be in the final and will find a way to lose to whoever he plays.

I have this nagging feeling De Minaur might win this and i am afraid if that happens then i am finished with tennis as if that happens i am calling fix!
 
Where did I say he had no chance? :unsure: I even said he's still capable of making it highly competitive but a 37 year old player should not be favoured to win a best of 5 match against a 4 time GS champion 16 years younger than him, no matter how many times he's won it before.
Thats just common sense and how i see it. Of more concern to me as i have only just seen this, but they are scheduled to start at 9.10pm local time. That is absolute madness and if the match goes long as it probably will as conditions at that time will be super slow then Zverev or Paul have a great chance to make the final and for some reason i can see De Minaur in the final now and Paul or Zverev as his opponent would be perfect for Australia. Just starting to smell a rat a little bit!

Relax, they'll give sinner a night match where he'll be basically guaranteed against deminaur, more recovery time and sinner won't have those physical issues. + de minaur won't be able to hit through him.

Alcaraz was the easiest challenge. Now comes the hardest part. Zod and Sinner are another level. Time to see that smile in the face of adversity.
