— Is Popyrin a serious contender for the title?
– I don’t know how to evaluate this. He just beat me, the current champion, and he deserves respect and praise for that. If he serves and plays well, he can beat anyone.
“Alcaraz and I have been eliminated from the tournament. It is clear that Sinner is the big favorite. But there are also Tiafoe, Fritz, Zverev and other strong players. Rublev and Dimitrov also remain in the running. There are a lot of talented tennis players in the tournament, and it will be interesting to see who will ultimately win the title,” Djokovic said in The Tennis Letter.
Djokovic did not name Daniil Medvedev among the favourites. The Russian is the only remaining tennis player who has already won this tournament.
