Who will end the season as a world No. 1 on the ATP Rankings? The Australian legend Rod Laver answered this question through Twitter. Novak Djokovic – hes playing well. Hes over his tennis elbow and hes prepared to put the effort in.
The most promising Next Generation player? Probably Alex De Minaur – hes a tough player. Hes great at being able to find a way to beat an opponent. The other one is Denis Shapovalov. His favourite Laver Cup highlight? Roger and Rafa play doubles together.
Who would he have liked to face among the current players? Roger at Wimbledon. Not comment on the outcome! Who would win an arm wrestle between Laver and Muscles? If you are talking left-handed, Im going to say I would win! Maybe he could catch me on the right side.
Laver believes that achieving the Calendar Grand Slam can be made: Its possible that a Grand Slam can be won again. There are a lot of good players coming up that will continually improve. Fitness is one area and the discipline to get ready for each tournament, – the competition now is much tougher.
On Alexander Zverevs up and down, Laver wrote: Its difficult to know. Hes certainly capable. Probably the preparation, but hes certainly capable of doing well at any of the Grand Slams. ALSO READ: Rafael Nadal: Worse players than David Ferrer won a Grand Slam title
