Alexandre Muller faces the daunting task of taking on seven-time champion Novak Djokovic in the first round of Wimbledon. Aware of the challenge ahead, the Frenchman still believes in his chances against the Serbian. He shared his thoughts in an interview with *L’Équipe*:

"This will be my third time playing on Centre Court—it’s not quite like home, but almost. He’s a human being like me, and I think there’s always a chance. I hope age starts to take a bit of a toll on his physique. He’s the greatest player in history, and at Wimbledon, his stats are unbelievable. I’ll give it my best, and we’ll see."

Their last meeting was at the 2023 US Open, where Djokovic won in straight sets (6-0, 6-2, 6-3).

42e, 1230 points

4e, 4830 points

Of course age will start to take a toll on him, but it won't be soon enough to help you I'm afraid.

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.
