Novak Djokovic and Alexander Zverev are on a collision course in Monte Carlo, where they may clash as early as in the quarters. Novak and Sascha enjoy a great relationship. The world number 1 conducted an extremely funny interview with Zverev in Monte Carlo. Eventually, he wished Sascha a fantastic run until the quarters when they are expected to play against each other.
The interview started with Novak Djokovic asking Zverev how he feels. This was the answer from the German sensation:
“You are the only one that is asking me. I don’t know. For some reason, you’re the only one that is interested, actually. So it’s always very nice to talk to you. But every time we talk, it’s about three hours long, so we will not do this in front of the camera.”
Later, Novak and Sasha exchange all sorts of jokes. Enjoy the video.
