550 of you might have noticed that a video titled “Practice vs Match Play” was (accidentally) released this morning. That video was supposed to drop after Miami. Look out for it then ✌️
Your predictions are on point👍
I also hope Alcaraz makes it, the courts suit him. As for the women, not so sure about Gauff, i feel Sakkari's coaching change to David Witt is working wonders and she seems very comfortable in Indian Wells. She is also physically able to go toe-to-toe with Gauff, and shoulf have the upper hand in forehand crosscourt rallies. PS: nice ending this time! ;)
You're one of the few who has picked Carlos and I agree. He's found his form and I also think that if anyone can end Sinner's streak it's Carlos. Meddy has even said that it's not possible for Sinner to win forever. I would like to see Carlos lift his first trophy of 2024.
Completely agree w/ya re: the Nardi return issue as Djoker's reaction to it w/the umpire was weak & made him look like a crybaby & he had no business referring to Nardi's return as not being fair play imo. Kudos to Nardi for getiing the W. I'll take Alcaraz to end Sinner's 2024 undefeated streak & defend his title too.
I don't know why this is a big deal? Djoker did a similar thing against wawrinka in a match years ago. Nardi faked it and won the point. Fair game
Honestly ridiculous that Djokovic acted like that. He stuffed up and isn't taking accountability. Play the ball.
Nik, bless you! Thanks for all your hard work.
I think we were tricked by Zverev quarterfinal. The form and the speed of his forenhand and backhand give Carlos the time enough to make some of the incredible shot we all have seen. But he will not have the same time against Jannik that its hitting faster and straighter. Thus I don't think Carlos is going to win.. But I do agree that whoever comes on top on that semi, its going to win also the final
Great Prediction -was predicting the same -Alcaraz thrives with the bouncy IW 👌Sinner will comeback for sure .🎉
I am impressed by your objective and deep analysis! You are close in your prediction! I will look forward to your future video! Great! Good luck!
🙏
8 different countries represented in the men's QF and 7 in the women's QF. Good for global tennis.
This will be hell of a season. Novak will bounce back. We have Sinner, Alcaraz and Medvedev as GS contenders. Four guys who can win anything from this moment on.
The beekeeper stole the show😂😂.
Sinner to win IW
@milan IW prediction incorrect
I think this surface will give alcaraz the best shot at beating sinner out of any court on the planet, especially in the form he is in right now
The oldest cliché in all mens sports the 'I could have beaten you when I was younger' is a curse that plays out in many an aging athlete mind, it was a very average performance by Novak and Nardi very obviously did not cheat so it was a disappointing reaction from Novak who usually is a strong supporter of young guys coming through.
In this case, it's not even "when I was younger ...". Djokovic is definitely going through some slump. Nardi is not at Djokivic's level even now. Like Nik is saying here, could be something mental.
Good call on Carlos winning the final, I think most would have backed Sinner
Paul gave a good account of himself. Close (2nd set TB; had it in him to take it, but not his best patch; credit also to Medvedev for digging deep) but no cigar.
Hey Nikola, I love how you coordinate your outfits with your primary topic. Just promise us if you focus on Marta Kostyuk you won't wear her pink outfit. I don't think that would be a good look on you 😯 Really enjoy your commentaries.
😂😂 that would be so awful 💀💀
It will be an interesting clay season.
Miami first 😅
Djokovic won the second set y is he complaining abt the ‘gamesmanship’, which was a genuine mistake, when it was the only set he won 😂
‘non era giusto, però bravo” which means “(what you did) was wrong, but you did well’
When does this go off?
More likes guys, author giving us very good info and lessons!
I saw Gauff live this week against the young italian girl, her forehand was really sketchy..... but her defence and athleticism were incredible....its what got her the win.
You called it. Carlos won🎉
💯
Djokovic being gracious in defeat is ONLY an act and I think a lot of people see through it. Monfils is by far the most gracious player in all of tennis. No one else is close.
I've always felt Djokivic is the most politician like among the three. He's not like that when he was young but morphed into it.
i would not call it gracious. this was just IW. How about AO? He didn't give gracious kudos or credit. How about, my level wasn't there today because my opponent outplayed me and forced me out of my element. He beat me, today. Never does that.
You know that Nadal is now the ambassador of tennis for Saudi Arabia right? @@tomsd8656
Brain dead detected
You brain dead child 😂 know nothing about tennis
❤❤❤
Shouldn’t be pulling out of Miami unless he’s injured
second. Djokovic is not going to last to 2028. 2025 is probably his last.
Absolutely. These young players are going to beat him more and more often and he knows it.
Nonsense! They are not near his level at all. How long will he play? For as long as he wants. He needs Nadal to play longer. Nadal inspires Djokovic, much more than young guns. I hope Nadal can solve his body issues. If it is possible, he will do it. Elitte warrior!
Age catches up with everyone…. Even if Djokovick is playing in 2028 … I don’t think he would be top 20 player at that time
@@DeltoidBeast What are you smoking? Look at his h2h against Alcaraz, Sinner and Rune. Novak is not owning these guys, he knows they are the future and he knows it depends on their level if he will win anything big in the rest of his career. Nadal can have one last shot on clay this year but Djokovic’s main rivals are Alcaraz, Sinner and Medvedev. They are already 50/50 against him (even Rune) despite the new gen’s lack of experience. They were not even in their prime when most of those matches were played. Once these guys reach their prime, he is finished. Maybe Sinner is there already, he won 3 out of 4 of their last meetings. He is not going to lose many more matches to Novak, neither is Alcaraz.
@@patrikmarflak6559 I smoke the reality, the truth. Something you are not aware of. Novak has positive h2h against all of them, and he is just going to increase the lead. Tsitsipas had 2:1 against Novak, now it is 2:10 :) Similar will happen to all of them. Not having full seasons distrupt Novak, now he can play all big tournaments, and he is #1. When those fired boys figure out how strong Novak is, they will lose everything against him. Novak main strength is to get know opponent's game, and crush it during the time.
I agree re Djokovic even I support him but he should have been nicer to Nardi who is his fan.
Jannik vs Carlitos could be epic. I give the edge to Jannik. Even on this surface he should be able to rush Carlos. And I think Sinner is mentally stronger and more focused. I agree that Meddy will find a way to beat Paul. But then it's Sinner for the title. My prediction: Jannik Sinner will win the sunshine double this year. 🏆🏆
On the women's side: Gauff looked really shaky against Yue. If she plays like this, Sakkari definitely has a chance.
For anyone to beat Iga in these conditions, it needs some kind of wonder.
‘non era giusto, però bravo” which means “(what you did) was wrong, but you did well’
from nd to Luca Nardi at the handshake ...
my guess is Sinner and Iga will win the title
Who is Cori Gauff?
Cori is her actual name. Coco is a nickname that she clearly prefers.
only Novak stopped playing the point, nardi didn't stop.
I am still not sure on what level Alcaraz is. Zverev is terrible at the moment. He cant hit a forehand at all. His mind looks very absent. He went into the court to be destroyed against Alcaraz. I expect Sinner to win, not because Sinner is so good, but because Alcaraz is still finding his maximum. That is fun match to watch for sure, final before the final. Medvedev has no chance on this court against Alcaraz or Sinner. Paul for sure has no chance if he somehow manage to pass Medvedev.
Balance is good so I hope alcaraz wins
Gauff is having so much trouble with her forehand. I repeat, problem is in her grip. Contact is too thin, she cant crush the ball. Her exceptional athleticism and other shots make her winning mostof her matches, but she must fix that forehand. Only Swiatek plays well with that grip. Arm must be very bent and compact with a body all the time for that forehand to work.
Armchair quarterback much? I bet she has people on her team who have some expertise in that area 😉
@@sviatoslavnovosiadlyi611 Sure she has, yet issue remains there for years. She must feel solution with her own body, that is only way to fix it. All those experts around her have worse forehand than her. So, it is questionable is she guided properly.
My humble prediction: Medvedev and Sinner -> final. The winner is Medvedev. Let's see;)
humble and incorrect.
70% chance sinner will go home with a trophy
UVA baby. WAHOOWA
SHOKING NEWS!!! Novak is a gracious loser!
In reality, this would be even more shoking as his real behaviour actually is! Even he would repeat his own words "WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? If he stops doesn't mean the point stops?"🤣🤣🤣
Fact is, in a very short time he turned from a Top-Player to a broken one. And there is only one reason why: his new and only nightmare named SINNER! He broke him mentally already, and Nardi was just like "a shot of mercy"! At this st/age, it will be almost impossible for him to come back from the "dark" /to the top. Sinner, and of course also Alcaraz, will be around for the next 10-20 years and FEAR (also something new for Novak) would stand side by side to him all the way up. His past won't be very helpful anymore. THIS is the new tennis reality!
Or am I the blind one?😏
LOL how the hell did you get the idea that Novak is a gracious loser? He is the worst!
All you have to do is watch all the handshakes he did with Rafa and Roger. Win or lose he was always more gracious at the net. You can watch the press conferences as well. Yeah during the match he can smash rackets, scream etc but after the last shot is played he's always a gent. If you watch tennis you'd know that👍
You couldn't be more wrong, he's one of the best. The fact that every hater has come out of the woodwork frothing at the mouth over this controversy is obvious of that.
Tommy Paul has quite amateur forehand and backhand. His serve is solid, great kick serve. Good mover, but he has no level to sustain top 20 status. I expect him to drop.
novak is done.
Djoker more gracious in a loss than Fed or Nadal?? Please back this up with evidence @intuitivetennis
I'm a Fedal fan 'til I die, but I also think Djokovic IS very gracious in defeat. A good example would be his speech after losing the Wimbledon final last year, which clearly hurt him a lot, but he said a lot of nice things about Carlos and his team, made some good jokes and looked happy for Carlos during the ceremony. A lot of times the final loser just says the standard congratulation stuff and then look like they just want the ceremony to end for the rest of the procedure 😆.
When have you ever seen Fed or Nadal smiling and joking around when they lose
@@christiannovak-zemplinski9749I am not sure how genuine he is. I feel like it’s just to keep his face and not look like douche
Thats a false comparison. The origninal claim was that Djoker is more gracious than Fed / Nadal. Not that Fed / Nadal enjoy losing@@IdontKnow-jt2oz
@@sviatoslavnovosiadlyi611”feel like” yet without any evidence to back up at all stfu fraudal fan
Djokovic level is still so high. Nardi played phenomenal match, and I think Djokovic was so annoyed to have so much trouble against Nardi, and that is why he did not performed mentally well in that match. If it is true that Djokovic complained Nardi at the net, that really was not nice from him. Although Nardi reaction to stop the point really affected Djokovic, that is his problem, and cant be called a hindrance. Still, Sinner and Alcaraz level are not near of Djokovic's level. I like Novak cancelled Miami, even though I am sure he wanted to play so badly there after early exit in IW. His focus is on the clay court season mainly because of Olympics. I expect very strong Djokovic and Nadal on clay destroying all young guns.
😅first
This proves Djokovic is only gracious for the camera when losing. Federer and Nadal don't act like hypocrites, they show their disappointment when they lose as they don't hug their opponent. Hypocrisy does exist Nick.
This proves nothing. Federer and Nadal are among the saltiest losers out there. Djokovic is genuinely gracious because he likes the fight on the court. One time he can be wrong also. No body is perfect. But it is nothing compared to Federer's saltiness at pressers.
@@orlinasokolova3015 Another blind Serb. Federer doesn't hide his bitterness when he loses, if you ever played the sport, you know how it is.
Djokovic also doesn't hide anything. I don't have any bitterness whatsoever for anything. Because I respect the man who is making this videos above I won't make this comment sections one of those hateful anti-tennis platforms. I will only say this to you - not all the people of the World who like Djokovic are "Serbs". And second the confidence with which you address me like that probably fooled by my name reveals only your own ignorance.@@pierre-marc.gareau
Djoko a gratefully loser?! Give me a brake 😂😂
At the moment, it’s not available in the store, but if you want, I can give you an automatic transmission or a windshield wiper.
@@trolley4388 Uau a UA-cam commenter attempting to be funny. You should try stand up, little fella
It’s just a guess because I obviously have no idea but I wonder if the fact that the crowd seems to be systematically against Djokovic (except when he plays in Eastern Europe) is getting into Djoko’s nerves, there seems to always be a reason for the crowd to support Djoko’s opponent. Must be tiring to be the best ever and yet not get the support from so many. That’s my explanation of his reaction against Nardi.
Oh please. Once it’s feeding him then it’s tiring. US open 2021, fans in the stands were absolutely behind him and he played his worst grand slam final in ages. He wants to be loved, but plays better when he’s not the crowd’s favourite, it’s always been like that. Because he’s kind of a psycho genius on court.
Yes you might be right @@patrikmarflak6559
Like every time a great analysis👍All the discussion about Djokovic i cant understsnd. I stay by Djokovic because he is now the only one with the most records on the tour. Great respect for him. I never understand why the audience always love Federer and Nadal both of them always very serious on the court. I think it is not respectfully against Djokovic from the audience. The people must go on the court and play a match again for example Medvedev. Every player on the court makes a great performance and i dont understand the stupid audience sometimes. I hope for Djokovic that he has good games and success for the last years he will playing and from the audience also from the other players respect for his great life performance.
Well the fact that Novak's fans, like you, call everyone else "stupid" because they prefer other players says it all.
He can be the GOAT, but generally and at the end, EVERYBODY just gets the respect he deserves as a human - it's just all coming back - to anybody. STOP! You can't buy it only with trophies, what was also Djokos greatest wrong-thinking! No need to argue "why?" and "why not?" There is ALWAYS a reason why! Only Novak-Fans won't never accept the truth😏
The point is: you must not really be a Federer-fan to respect him. Is it the same with Novak? Why not? See above!
You don’t understand why people love Federer …. Seriously? I understood if you don’t like Federer… you don’t understand why most people like him ??
I am not only a Djokovic Fan but in this time he is the active player with the most records and that is to respect@@FrancesD-bo2ou
when i don't like Federer or Nadal then I am writing it. @@srikk9
Poor Djokovic. Will not win another Major
He does not need anything else to win. He already completed GOAT status :) however, I expect him to hit 30 slams and break 500 weeks at # 1.
Whats your opinion of Casper Ruud being formerly world #2? Weakest era tennis
Wow. Djokovic being a crybaby and being wrong about the event
Novak in numerous matches yelled at ball kids when he didn’t play well. Even his parents joined him and talked loud on purposely when Federer is on their side of the court.
Please, djokovic was always a big sore loser. What he did to Shelton was also unnecessary. Please stop filtering his behaviors on the court and see the truth. I agree though Federer and nadal were also sore losers although hided pretty well than djokovic
All you have to do is watch all the handshakes he did with Rafa and Roger. Win or lose he was always more gracious at the net. You can watch the press conferences as well. Yeah during the match he can smash rackets, scream etc but after the last shot is played he's always a gent. If you watch tennis you'd know that👍
Djokovic is generally gracious in defeat, and the shelton thing was after he won and i thought it was cool. But he does have some… well, it seems he feels like he feels he is privileged
You dont know wtf you are talking about Shelton is a punk - the best way i can put it. Shelton did it to others!!!
No. Novak generally more gracious than most player’s including fed and Ralph
Throwing rackets, destroying rackets, shooting ball into necks, unnecessary political statements.
Yeah extremly graciously...
Novak is definitely not a gracious loser , seeing it since he started and he had always some douchey characteristic, only in the last few years when he had 20GS on his back and was winning big that he was showing being "humble", being humble while winning is easy
I watched the match and he didn't stop play he seemed hesitant but he still approached the net hit a volley and it was a winner people act like he just stood there confused and hit a winner out of some miraculous fate of destiny No he had to do it himself Djokovic should have stopped the point immediately which he can do but instead he's crying like a little b**** and then he drops out of the next tournament he's so ridiculous.
Novax has always been a poor sport and exhibits bad behavior on court unlike Roger and Rafa. How many times have they broken rackets vs Joker? Like never vs 100? Joker also says his injured, losing his balance, tripping, slipping, etc. and then plays amazing and wins. He’s a drama queen and after misbehaving the whole match, pretends to be gracious. It’s sad that he’s such an incredible athlete but a poor role model.
