Pat Cash: If Djokovic gets his schedule right, he can win again
7.01.2025
Pat Cash said he could stop Novak Djokovic in 2025. Djokovic will turn 38 next year.
Older players fall into this trap when they try to take care of their body. They don`t always manage to find the right balance and play enough matches.
You often see older players lose five-set matches and have more bad days. It`s natural. This is a lack of pretense.
I know Novak has played a lot of matches throughout his career, but he still needs practice before a Grand Slam in a five-set format.
We often say that you shouldn’t allow yourself heavy five-set lifts in the first week of the Slam – because you need freshness, especially as you age.
If you don`t have enough match practice and play a difficult match at the beginning of the tournament, then everything will hurt later.
Andy Murray had a lot of injuries, but he always tried to play a lot of tournaments. And that`s the secret for Novak next year. If he gets his schedule right and gets the required number of matches, he will be able to win again, ” said the 1987 Wimbledon champion.
