Spanish tennis coach Toni Nadal gives an interesting take on Carlos Alcaraz’s unstoppable rise. The 62-years thinks that only Novak Djokovic can come in the way of Alcaraz and defeat the young Tennis star.
He wrote in the Spanish newspaper El Pais: “Honestly, I don’t see any tennis player on the current scene, with the exception of Djokovic, capable of stopping Carlos’ unstoppable rise”.
He further elaborated,” Djokovic does not have many years left and I think that Spanish fans will have the opportunity to enjoy many more matches and celebrate many more victories on both hot and cold Sunday afternoons.”
Djokovic, who turned 36 in May, was 16 years older than his Wimbledon opponent. Even though there was a significant age gap between the two, Toni had nothing but respect for the 23-time Grand Slam champion for his courageous fight all the way to the fifth set.
