“Can Pass Very Quickly in Front of Federer” – Former Coach Backs Novak Djokovic at US Open 2020

Serbian star Novak Djokovic is set to return to professional tennis in the United States. However, this isn’t the first time will be lifting his racquet since the pandemic came into the picture. A while back, he hosted the Adria Tour which had some negative effects. The Serb got infected with the coronavirus and fans are worried about the superstar will play. Richard Piatti, who coaches Jannik Sinner has just given his view on this.

How Will Novak Djokovic Play?

In a recent interview, Jannik Sinner’s coach Richard Piatti spoke about whether the Adria Tour will affect Novak Djokovic’s performance in New York. He said, “Djokovic is the most tennis-focused player of all. Especially right now. He organized the Adria Cup not because he wanted to compete with other players but because he thought he was doing a good thing for everyone: his people, the players. He was wrong but in good faith. Then he trained to be ready. Nole is very focused on his tennis also because he can pass very quickly in front of Federer in terms of Grand Slams which is his primary objective.”

A long time back, Novak was not even close to beating the Grand Slam record. However, he played some incredible tennis over the year. Now, he is very close to equaling it. In fact, he is just three Majors away from equaling the record, something he will be hoping to get closer to at the 2020 US Open.

Initially, Novak Djokovic was hesitant about playing in New York. He felt that it would be impossible to play there as there were too many restrictions in place. Despite his reservations, he later confirmed his participation at the event. Hopefully, he will win his fourth US Open title there and in the process, his 18th Grand Slam title.
