"Every time I play against Monfils, people wonder whether this is the moment he will beat me or not," Djokovic discusses the uniqueness of being undefeated against an opponent

A solid winner against Fritz (6-3, 7-5, 3-6, 6-4) in the US Open quarterfinals, Djokovic added an eleventh victory to his record against the American, with zero losses. A dominance he also holds over Raonic and Seppi (12-0) as well as the Frenchman Monfils (20-0).

While the undefeated status may seem like an advantage before the match, it can also create a certain amount of pressure, according to the 38-year-old player:

"We enjoy facing guys we've never lost to. But at the same time, we always look forward to these matches. Especially with Monfils—every time I play him, people wonder whether this is the moment he will beat me or not, and there's always that extra pressure you feel on the court. You don't want to let him win even a single match."

At Flushing Meadows, Djokovic will now face the world number 2, Alcaraz.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.

What a finish this is.. I believe King has used his boost for today. Skelp is closing strong. Two wins and he claims 1st if I lose my last prediction.
