The Serbian Novak Djokovic, the third favorite Wimbledon, stressed at the All England Club, two days of the beginning of this “Grande”, Rafa Nadal, his executioner in the final of Queen’s “best ever played on grass” . The winner of the Australia Open last January predicted a new era in the world of men’s tennis, “where are increasingly new names and new faces, that make the sport is far more interesting.”

“Roger (Federer) remains the number one and continues to achieve good results even if they are not as good as those of five years ago, when his domination was absolute and that domain you mentally affected. Now, he suffers a little more pressure” , Djokovic said in a meeting with the media. Asked about the time that is Nadal on grass, did not hesitate to refer to Manacorense Nadal, four times champion at Roland Garros, as “one of the best players in the world.”

“Nadal ever plays better on grass and it has just shown in Queen’s. There was impressive,” said the Serbian, who had to suffer in the end skills on the court’s Balearic tennis. In addition, he noted that people will see him and Nadal as the “threats” to Federer in his defense of No. 1 even though he believes that “much remains to go.” “I personally-qualified, I am raising small challenges, I want to be consistent with my game.” On his own game in the green area, Djokovic admitted that he had “improved”.

“Working in some segments”
“I’ve been 3 or 4 years playing on this surface, which normally do not have many opportunities to practice, although it is the surface that has more history,” he observed. He indicated that continues “to work in some segments” which wants to change his tennis, “as the draw and la volée.” He also referred to erratic weather threatened the British in one day by rain. “Before, players used to spend it with jokes, but now no longer. Now we want to avoid bad weather but here is difficult. It is a tradition that makes bad at Wimbledon, is part of the tournament.”

Among other factors, the time has motivated this year to rent a house with a garden near the club where you can relax and “disconnect” of tennis. “Here I like the tranquility, being at home with my family, relax in the garden, with the mind away from the parties come to power and walking club,” he said.
