Novak Djokovic He made it clear that age and physical wear do not take away ambition in the great scenarios. After overcoming an intense quarterfinal match to the American Taylor Fritzthe Serbian already thinks of its demanding semifinal against Carlos Alcaraz at the US Open 2025.
“We will see in two days. The good thing is that I have rest and that helps a lot. I do not feel fresh now, but I hope to be better,” Djokovic acknowledged after playing three and a half hours of battle in New York.
The historical number one of the 38 -year -old tennis admitted that the next few hours will be decisive to regain strength: “It will not be easier, I assure that. The next few days are key to fighting in five sets if necessary. I know that I will need my best tennis, but I am willing to face the challenge.”
Djokovic, who in recent matches against Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner said he felt with “the tank half empty,” avoided being pessimistic:
The duel against Alcaraz is emerging as the great appointment of the tournament. The Murcian, 16 years old, arrives as a favorite, but Djokovic is confident that his experience and fighting ability will allow him to take another step in search of the US Open final.
