If most actors and observers expressed their indignation regarding the more than limited comments of a journalist on Novak Djokovic during a report broadcast live on Australian television, Benoît Maylin for his part preferred to insist on psychology from Serbian.
According to our colleague, the Serbian, who refused to speak on the court this Sunday after qualifying for the quarter-finals, would deliberately put himself in a “bad guy” position to give himself even more mental strength. The objective is obviously to obtain a 25e Grand Slam title in a week.
“The mission seems impossible. So Djokovic catches anything that can make him “bad”. It's a total mental chess game. Because if he wants to win a 25e Grand Slam title. he must absolutely beat Alcaraz, then Zverev, then Sinner, Impossible, right? Not for him”wrote Benoît Maylin, which will not necessarily bring everyone into agreement.
