Novak Djokovic reckons he has never played better than how he is playing right now
Novak Djokovic reckons he has never played better than how he is playing right now and he has the real possibility to complete a career Grand Slam this year at Roland Garros.
Djokovic has won all the three Slams apart from the French Open.
The best that he has done in the French Open is reaching the finals.
Last year too, he was in the title round, but, only to be toppled by the king, Rafael Nadal who achieved glory for the nth time on the French soil.
Nadal’s current form, though, does not guarantee that he would be able to continue his golden run in Paris. He is, of course, one of the favourites again because of his past records and his skills on clay, but, he is not the hot favourite.
It should not be that surprising if somebody manages to breach Nadal’s fortress this time around and that guy might well be Djokovic.
Speaking in an interview, the Serb said, “I believe my game is at the topmost level at the moment and now, it’s up to me to ensure that I make the most of it and win whatever I have not managed to win so far.”
“French Open is quite a tough tournament. It’s not only the surface which makes the difference, but, also, the pressure and the excitement that comes with it. But, I am confident and I hope this turns out to be my season.”
When asked how much fatherhood has changed his life, Djokovic said, “It has got me to get a little more matured as a person. I realize my off court responsibilities as well now.”
“I am really lucky to have this sort of stability and calmness in my personal life. It helps me to go out there on the court with a relaxed mind and play as well as I can.”
