“Probably not, to be perfectly honest. For me, but also for FedererNadal was unbeatable there for a long time, only losing a few times at the Philippe Chatrier. Every time you step on that runway with him, he’s the favorite” he explained.
Indeed, Djokovic acknowledges that this summer, facing a very diminished Nadal at the Games, he too had to do his best to win.
“Even at the Olympics he had injury problems, I was in better shape, but still, you know It is the highest mountain to climb“, he recalled.
