John Isner: “Novak Djokovic has only Wimbledon in mind”
John Isner is convinced that a possible success in Wimbledon would achieve the last great goal of Novak Djokovic's career.
“I think now he has only Wimbledon in mind. It is very difficult for him to win Roland Garros and is probably aware of this. Three sets won on the slag, for two weeks, against all those excellent players, plus Sinner's return – is a huge challenge. The slag has never been his favorite surface, and at present he does not play the best, “said John Isner.
I was trying to win a match or two, without really thinking about getting far in the tournament … It is a completely different feeling from the one I had in the more than 20 years of professional tennis. It is a challenge for me from a mental point of view to truly face this type of sensations on the ground, coming out early on tournaments. But this is the cycle of life and career, eventually it had to happen.
