World number one Men’s Tennis player,Novak Djokovic has tipped Rafael Nadal as the player to beat in the US Open Grand Slam.
The US Open commences tomorrow and Djokovic believes that Nadal’s form coming into the tournament,has put him in good stead for the title.
Nadal has won three masters titles on hard courts this year,at the Indiana Wells,Montreal and Cincinnati Open,which shot him back to the World number two spot.
”Nadal is definitely back and playing maybe the best tennis that he ever has played on hard courts,” Djokovic was quoted as saying on BBC Sports.
”He’s definitely so far the best player this year. There is no question about it. The results are showing everything.”
Nadal’s long time adversary,Roger Federer added “I’m clearly very impressed,” the 32-year old Swiss said.
”Especially seeing him play really well on the quicker hard courts.”
“It would be different if it was just Indian Wells and Miami where it’s very slow over there, and then Montreal and Cincinnati would have been first round [losses].
“But he won those as well, and he showed also on the quicker hard courts he’s someone to be reckoned with.”
