Opponent coach admits Djokovic is unbeatable

"I have a feeling Djokovic can't be beaten," coach Stine said in an interview with Tennis Channel on April 7. "Other people in the top 10 ATP all give the feeling that you can lose if you don't play well. But Djokovic is not."

According to Stine - who also led former world number one Jim Courier, Djokovic is superior to Rafael Nadal at this time. He said: "I remember correctly, Nadal has lost 4.5 American players in the last six months. Obviously he is more vulnerable. When we face Djokovic, we both understand it will be a very difficult battle. difficult".

Tommy Paul thrived this season, reaching the semi-finals of the Australian Open and losing to Djokovic himself. The American tennis player has just risen to the highest position of his career, number 18 in the world. He admits that he wants to learn from Djokovic in his ability to maintain his mentality in important moments.

Djokovic returns from next week, when attending the Monte Carlo Masters. He took more than a month off because he couldn't play in the US. Serbian tennis players aim to conquer the 23rd Grand Slam at Roland Garros - the tournament takes place from May 28 to June 11.

Nadal is also targeting Roland Garros after a long break with a hip injury. The 36-year-old tennis player is likely to compete in Madrid and Barcelona to be a springboard to her forte Grand Slam. Nadal also missed many clay tournaments last year, losing to the Madrid Open but then still winning Roland Garros.

"Nadal has many goals but he has become easier to beat," added coach Stine. "It is difficult to say who will win the most Grand Slams in history. But Djokovic has a great advantage thanks to his stability in fitness and form."
