Tennis is set to be a significant draw for spectators worldwide at the Paris Olympics, which begin on July 26. Star players like Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, and Carlos Alcaraz will be in action at Roland Garros. Tennis will be held at the Roland Garros courts, and the matches could be exciting thrillers. Djokovic turned to Instagram to share a sneak peek at his preparations. He will compete in his fifth Olympics, winning a bronze medal in singles in 2008. His post featured a video of him demonstrating his remarkable shoots and other workouts.
Meanwhile, Nadal and Alcaraz have both arrived at Roland Garros. The two Spaniards will compete in both singles and doubles, partnering each other in the latter. Nadal has already won a singles gold medal in Beijing (2008) and a men’s doubles gold in Rio (2016). In 2016, Nadal fell to Kei Nishikori in the bronze medal match. Meanwhile, Alcaraz will make his Olympic debut.
According to reports, Nadal and Alcaraz will start training at Roland Garros on July 22, and it is not known if they will train together. Alcaraz has booked a court from 11 am to 1 pm while Nadal has reserved for 3 pm.
Nadal was recently filled with praises for his fellow countryman. My impression is that we are talking about a player who is going to be one of the best in history. That is my feeling. He is a player with enormous potential. Life can change quickly, that is the truth. You never know what can happen in the future, but today, if we have to predict what will happen in his career, we predict amazing things, the 22-time Grand Slam winner said.
His level of tennis is very high. If he can stay away from injuries, of course, Sinner will be there, but today I see him with Sinner above the rest without a doubt. I don’t see many players who can stop him on the Tour and the best thing about him today is that in every tournament he plays, no matter what surface, he is going to be the favorite, he added.
No player was the favorite before every tournament and today I feel that he has that aura, that feeling. That is a great advantage because I think he feels that if he plays at his level, it is difficult for anyone to beat him, Nadal concluded.
