Novak Djokovic and Daniil Medvedev are going to face off for the 13th time in their career on Saturday in the Adelaide semi-final. Novak and Daniil are used to having very long matches, and the Serbian sensation believes that they will have another tough one in South Australia.
“Hopefully, it will be another long night,” Djokovic said. “I don’t think there’s going to be too many short points tomorrow unless we both serve well. Normally when you play Daniil, you have to be ready to go the distance, physically, mentally, and game-wise.
“He’s definitely one of the best players in the world for the past five years. He’s established himself as a Grand Slam winner and a No 1 in the world, so he’s someone I respect a lot. We had some amazing battles over the years and I’m hoping for another good battle tomorrow.”
