After making a clear observation on the game within the ATP circuit compared to the time when he played, Tomas Berdych, interviewed by our colleagues from Tennis Majorsalso spoke of the inevitable retirement of the Big 3.
“Of course, it's sad to see the guys have to end their careers, but we know it's going to happen, and it's impossible for them to play forever. But when you look at their achievements, I completely understand why they really tried to do their best, because you never know what could happen: maybe Roger (Federer) would add one more Grand Slam, or Rafa (Nadal) add one more, and it would be history, and that's why I think Novak (Djokovic) is still playing. If he feels good and he can win another one, that's the greatest thing that can happen. And when you've given your all for the last 20, 25 years, why stop when you still feel competitive? I just didn't feel competitive enough. Of course, not to win the Grand Slam, because I was already not capable of doing that when I was at the top. But each player has his own level, and everyone knows what he is capable of accomplishing. So I think it's really good that they were able to extend their career like that. »
