Recently the former Australian tennis player Pat Rafter highlighted the difficulties of the present era tennis players as they play against a tennis player like Novak Djokovic.
With Novak being the best returner on the tour and having an excellent control on defense, the professionals fail to win points against the Serb. “Someone like Djokovic would make my life miserable. he returns too well,” Rafter said.
Also, the Dutch tennis player Robin Haase has a similar opinion for the Serbian ace. “The toughest thing is to play against Novak, without any doubt. You feel like an amateur when you play against him,” Haase told Sportsklub.
“I have never been close to a winning set against him. He doesn’t have weaknesses. Against the other players, there were moments when I felt I could threaten a bit — but against him, I had no idea what to do,” he added.
