Djokovic underestimated in chances of winning 25th Grand Slam

(Dan Tri) - Many experts believe that Djokovic has tried very hard in recent tournaments, but Nole has almost no chance of defeating Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz.

The British player just lost to Djokovic in the second round of Wimbledon, Dan Evans commented: "At 38 years old, he is still at a very high level, Djokovic is capable of beating any other opponent. But Sinner and Alcaraz are a difficult problem for Nole. They are not only younger but also have a very complete level to be able to beat Djokovic regularly.

Sinner and Alcaraz still have many tournaments and many years of top competition ahead of them. I believe that Sinner and Alcaraz can absolutely become the greatest tennis players in history when they finish their careers. Djokovic needs a lot of luck to be able to defeat these two opponents at the present time."

Women's doubles legend Rennae Stubbs believes Djokovic faces a real challenge in his quest for a 25th Grand Slam title: “Everyone thought Wimbledon would be Nole's biggest chance, he has many years of experience winning this tournament and the grass courts at Wimbledon often suggest the possibility of creating surprises.

However, Grigor Dimitrov was the one who almost defeated Sinner, but unfortunately he withdrew due to injury. Djokovic's defeat against Sinner was inevitable. Novak tried everything but still could not neutralize Sinner's power.

I think the 2026 Australian Open will be Djokovic's last appearance at a Grand Slam, a tournament he has won 10 times and has a special meaning in his career. Djokovic beat Alcaraz in the quarter-finals of the 2025 Australian Open but then had to retire in the semi-finals against Zverev due to injury.

Djokovic had a tough 2025, reaching the semi-finals of all three Grand Slams: the Australian Open, Roland Garros and Wimbledon. However, two comprehensive defeats to Sinner at Roland Garros and Wimbledon showed that Djokovic will not easily be able to seek a 25th Grand Slam title at the age of 38.

The Serbian tennis player is looking forward to the upcoming North American hard court season with two ATP Masters 1000 tournaments: the Canadian Open (July 27 to August 7), the Cincinnati Masters (August 7 to August 18) and ending with the US Open (August 24 to September 7) in New York (USA).
