Novak Djokovic Snub Lands Former American Star in Trouble as Fans Troll Her for ‘Dumb’ Australian Open Verdict

While talking about Australia, one name that stands out on top is Novak Djokovic. Throughout his career as a professional player, the Serbian legend has managed to lay his hands on 10 titles and prove his supremacy on the Australian hard courts. But, despite this, he is not the title favorite going in this year, according to a former American player.

In a recent revelation, Coco Vandeweghe talked about the title challengers at the upcoming Australian Open while claiming German sensation Alexander Zverev could be a real threat to the title challenge. However,  her comments dealt with a huge backlash from the fans as they came in and shattered their honest opinion of her remarks.

Recently, Vandeweghe came ahead and talked about the possibility of Alexander Zverev winning the upcoming Australian Open while suggesting that he could be a threat to the game. However, the fans did not seem to join hands with her.

One fan came ahead and suggested that she is sitting there like a Fox News anchor but is still sounding dumb. “Sitting there looking like a Fox News anchor, and sounding just as dumb,” said the fan.

This fan came in and made a bold statement suggesting that he would stop watching tennis should Zverev win. “If y’all let Zverev win a slam I will stop watching men’s tennis,” said the fan.

Another fan came in and asked about Zverev’s accomplishments last year to be considered a favorite in Australia. “Genuine question: what exactly has z*erev done to be considered a favorite in Melbourne?” asked the fan.

Next, this fan said that this is not 2020 so even the clay merchant could come in and defeat the German on a hard court. “Even the clay merchant will beat Zverev in a serious match. This isn’t 2020 please,” said the fan.

Last, but not the least, this fan asked if the statements made by the former player were a joke. “This is a joke right?” asked the fan.

Thus, Coco Vandeweghe had to go through a lot of backlash from the fans who came in and suggested that Alexander Zverev was not at all a real title threat at the Australian Open.

Alexander Zverev talks about his chances going into the Australian Open

Zverev, in a recent press conference, suggested that he came to the Australian Open last year without any hope of winning the title. However, this year, things are a little different. He is ranked number 7 in the world and could consider himself a title contender.

“Last year I came to Australian Open, and I openly said in all the press conferences, I’m not here to win the tournament, which is not the mindset I was going into tournaments usually.” said Zverev. “I’m past that now. I’m No. 7 in the world,” the German said. “I won a few titles last year where I’ve beaten some great players, as well. I think I’m past that now hopefully.”

Thus, ahead of the upcoming Australian Open, Alexander Zverev considers himself a title contender who can go all the way and secure the victory. However, it is only time that will reveal how far he makes it.
