Twenty participation in Roland Garros, nineteenth where it was shown in the third round. He only failed in his debut, in 2005, when he retired in his second fight against the Argentine Guillermo Coria, after debuting by defeating the American Robby Ginepri.
He is only 18 years old and has a record that currently contains three Musketeers Cups in Paris and twenty-four Grand Slams. At the age of 37, looking at the panorama of tennis from the height of number one where he remained throughout his career for 428 weeks.
You can lose it at this Roland Garros. If he does not reach the final, there are no calculations or checks on who should be the next leader of the classification, the Italian. Jannik Sinner. He can also give the crown of the clay temple.
But he will not give it lightly. He Novak Djokovic rare first day, against French Pierre-Hugues Herbert, He transforms into another athlete after a few hours. He hasn’t had the best season, his doubts grew last week when he lost in the Geneva semi-finals against the Czech Tomas Macac. But ‘Nole’ is ‘Nole’, and his room for improvement is often exponential, from one day to the next.
Novak Djokovic’s first threat to the staff came suddenly. He was insistent, he looked for and found the TKO. It was a bitter afternoon for the Spaniards Roberto Carballes. He built a wall that he crashed into. Balkan won 6-4, 6-1 and 6-2 in two hours of indoor play on the Philippe Chatrier center court.
Nor does this performance or result mean that there is nothing left for Djokovic, but it’s a warning that you can pull out of your hat again what you didn’t find weeks before. This is hard to crack. He saved mistakes, he gave nothing away. It’s all or nothing in Paris. Interesting. A lot. The Frenchman will set the third round bar Gael Monfils or Italian Lorenzo Musetti.
“Roberto started playing very effectively, I raised the level of my forehand and my backhand. Now to be happy with my game,” confessed Balkan, so critical of himself in recent months. Always in peak demand.
