WHO IS THE WORLD NO.1 TIPPING TO WIN THIS BATTLE OF THE GENERATIONS?
Speaking on-court following his easy win over Hurkacz, Djokovic was asked about this match. He said:
“It will be a Spanish player for sure! (laughs) It’s a tough one to say. They are arguably the two best players this year with the result they have had. Rafa is playing well. It didn’t seem like anything is bothering him in the last two matches. He’s very close to his best.
“Carlos is living the dream, playing amazing tennis and has improved so much. It’s hard to call. I’d say 50-50. There’s probably slightly more chance for Nadal just because of experience and in this altitude, but let’s see.”
