Murray and Djokovic's game

England’s Manchester, on September 12 (Reuters) – Andy Murray predicts that Novak Djokovic, who claimed his 24th Grand Slam championship on Sunday, will continue to rule men’s tennis for some time since younger players are still catching up to him.

With his most recent victory at the U.S. Open, Djokovic tied Margaret Court for most major singles victories. It’s up to the young men to pursue Novak and try to pass him. That doesn’t seem to be very likely, Murray told the BBC on Monday.

He demonstrated his superiority as a player once more yesterday, and as I have stated, it is up to the young players to advance sufficiently to challenge him. The 36-year-old Serbian, who was a member of the ‘Big Three’—along with Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal—that dominated men’s tennis for the previous 20 years, claimed he has no plans to retire.

“Novak has had the longest lifespan. The British player Murray, who won three Grand Slams, said of the player, “He’s played at this level for such a long time now. Djokovic’s dominance at Wimbledon was ended in July by 20-year-old Carlos Alcaraz, who had previously defeated the Serbian in four straight finals at the All England Club. However, Murray feels that the Spaniard’s success led to the wrong assumptions being made.

“I said that after Wimbledon, everyone was saying it was a changing of the guard, but it wasn’t for me,” the speaker continued. Alcaraz is an amazing talent, but I wonder if he can get better physically and mentally. Although Alcaraz is amazing, doing what Novak does consistently is something else. Djokovic, who is now ranked first in the world, will next fly to Valencia to join the Serbian squad for their Davis Cup Finals group stage matches against South Korea, Spain, and the Czech Republic.
