What Did Novak Djokovic Say? 

The first question he was asked was about forehand. Novak was quick to take the name of his arch-rival Rafael Nadal.

“That would be Nadal. Obviously, one of the best forehands in the game of all time. So much topspin means a very heavy ball, he can hit it flat as well. He can hit it from various corners or spots on the court. Inside, also far back, and it’s a very consistent weapon that he uses to create pressure on the opponent but also, to defend well and get back into the point.”

On the question of backhand, Novak picked Belgian star, David Coffin.

“Backhand, I would probably go to DavidDavif Goffin. His two-handed backhand, I like very much. He’s pretty flat, which means that he likes to take the ball quite early, which allows him then to dictate the play. He doesn’t miss so much from the backhand. Also has a very natural swing and preparation from the court.”

Novak revealed that he believes that the Canadian pair of Denis Shapovalov and Felix Auger Aliassime are the most talented players in the world. He credited their professionalism and dedication for the same. According to Novak, they have very bright futures ahead.

Let’s see what his answer was on the player with best physical abilities-

“Monfils, he can do splits, he can slide, he can jump. He’s very dynamic, he’s very strong. He’s the perfect athlete.”

The most amazing answer was on the question of best serve. Novak named one of his biggest adversaries Nick Kyrgios as the best serving player.

“He’s got an amazing serve. Obviously, very natural motion for the serve. Very hard to read, so regardless of the surface, he has a very powerful serve.”

You would be wondering if Novak named himself on one of the aspects. The answer is yes and it is for the most expected one. He gave his name for the best return and we couldn’t agree more. Novak has one of the most monstrous returns in the world. This helps him break the serve of some of the best players.
