Nadal-Djokovic in the quarterfinals, is already the most anticipated match of the fortnight. And he talked about the most. Seeded N.6 in Paris for the first time in his career, Rafael Nadal was the specter of the draw, the one who was going to give to the quarterfinals a special flavor. And fate – or rather the hand of Maria Sharapova – has decided that this would be the chosen one Novak Djokovic.
He who walks on water for months should tackle the Spaniard for the seventh time at Roland Garros on Tuesday or Wednesday of the second week, if the two men succeed, what is more qu’envisageable . But will it be good news to play so early in the tournament? Federer are not put his hand to be cut.
“ I think that the ranking reflects what happened for several months, judge Suisse . If he had been injured, Rafa would have been in the global Top 4 . To be placed where it is in the picture is not so bad for him. Whatever the person he has in front of him, he will be waiting for you. I think the person may regret such displays from the quarters, it’s Djokovic . ”

And Federer added. “ Rafa will be very hard to beat here Playing conditions are slower, it’s better for him when it gets physical, mental, he loves it In addition, he has his.. marks on center court . ” For Andy Murray, whether in quarter or in the final, it will not change for Djokovic and Nadal: “ Novak is the favorite, but on the courts here, Rafa is an extraordinary supremacy Sometimes in top. form, especially if he spends the first laps quietly. We know it feels good here. Especially if it’s hot . ”
For her part, Maria Sharapova was almost outraged not see in front of favorite Djokovic. “ To see his name followed so many question marks about its status of favorite, I think it’s disrespectful, Note the Russian . He is a champion extraordinary. There is no reason that it not a beautiful tournament here. He always motivated, he wants to prove he is still capable of winning here is truly remarkable. What is sad is that he must do as he has nothing to prove . ”
It is true that the French Open is Djokovic, world number one still in power he is present, that has everything to prove. Especially against Nadal who beat him six times in Paris in a decade. The last three seasons, it was half or the final. This year it will be sooner. And the one who will win may have done the hard part.
