La finale #Djokovic/#Tsitsipas.
Que je n'ai pas regardée.
Parce que je savais que ce serait- une fois encore, une fois de trop peut-être- ça.
#AusOpen
Bref,
15 (QUINZE?!!!) ans après sa 1ère victoire à l'@AustralianOpen contre 1 joueur désormais à la retraite depuis 1 an, #Djokovic expédie sans coup férir pour la énième fois 1 joueur de tennis plus jeune de 11 ans. Et où en serait- on sans les aléas pandémiques? #AusOpen
Que ce soit #Djokovic ou #Nadal, sur leurs surfaces de prédilection respectives, ils ont acquis, sauf blessure ou aléa, 1 telle emprise mentale et accumulé 1 telle richesse démultipliant leurs capacités de préparation physique (caisson etc.) que l'incertitude a 1 peu disparu...3/

There’s a new Grand Slam King 👑

Relive @RafaelNadal’s quest for a 21st Major title 🧵
The Spaniard made his Grand Slam debut in 2003 at Wimbledon and quickly rose up the ranks…

In 2005 at the age of 19, Nadal defeated Mariano Puerta to become just the second male player to win Roland-Garros on their first attempt 🏆
In 2008, Nadal claimed his first title at Wimbledon, defeating Federer 9-7 in the fifth

Novak Djokovic accepts the verdict and won’t appeal. He is out of Australian & #AusOpen.
3 years ban thing is a reality as well.
Djokovic will be replaced by Italian LL Salvatore Caruso, who will face Kecmanovic tomorrow. Surely not on Laver’s night session.

Should be Kokkinakis’ match to take that place.
