In the days leading up to the prestigious Monte-Carlo Masters tournament, Novak Djokovic surprised everyone by sharing his insights on the strategy employed by Carlos Alcaraz, the young Spanish prodigy who has risen to world number 3. During one of the pre-tournament training sessions, Djokovic noted the tactical patterns Alcaraz has been successfully using on his way to becoming a world tennis elite.

The Serbian, known for his sharp intelligence on the court, noted how Alcaraz has implemented a style of play characterized by a mix of aggression and control, taking advantage of his powerful forehand and mobility on the court. However, Djokovic wasn’t concerned about the young Spaniard’s strategy. In a surprising statement, the Serbian champion revealed how he plans to counter Alcaraz’s skills.
“It’s pretty straightforward,” Djokovic commented, causing astonishment among the journalists present. “It’s not that I underestimate Alcaraz, but his approach is quite predictable. I can easily neutralize him if I make a few adjustments to my own game. I know how to deal with him,” the Serb added confidently.
Djokovic’s statement has generated both admiration and skepticism among tennis experts, who wonder whether the experienced Serbian can truly stop the momentum and skill of Alcaraz, who has proven to be one of the most promising players of the new generation.
For his part, Alcaraz has yet to publicly respond to Djokovic’s remarks. However, the young Spanish talent has shown exceptional maturity in his recent performances, and he is undoubtedly preparing to face any challenge with the same determination that has led him to the top of the ATP rankings.
The upcoming match between Djokovic and Alcaraz, should it take place in Monte-Carlo, promises to be unmissable. Meanwhile, tennis fans and experts will be closely monitoring the tactics of both players, waiting to see if the experienced Djokovic will be able to implement his strategy to stop the younger Alcaraz
