Preview: Wimbledon Favorites and Contenders for the Men’s Title

The desire to see the best players in the world in action again in a Grand Slam is increasing as the long-awaited date approaches. Wimbledon It will start next Monday, July 1 and the bets on who will take the title in the men’s team are burning. Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz y Novak Djokovic They are the names that seem closest to that, but with certain particularities to take into account. And, while the Italian has started the grass tour with his first title in Halle and Carlitos will compete in Wimbledon after having won Roland Garros, the Serbian’s participation is still up in the air.

Nole is training there just a few days after having meniscus surgery, but it will depend on how he feels to decide his fate on the London grass. Will he make a decision before the draw next Friday? We will still have to wait. Meanwhile, the world of tennis and all its actors involved, to a greater or lesser extent, continue to express their opinions regarding favoritism in the third Grand Slam of the season. Thus, the recognized Ivan Ljubicic was chatting to Sky Sports Not only about this topic, but he also took the opportunity to praise Sinner as a player and as a person.

“I think Jannik Sinner is a wonderful example for young people. It’s not that others aren’t, but he has a particular way of doing things: he doesn’t get excited when he wins and he doesn’t make dramas when he loses. He does his job, he delivers. what he says. His greatest talent is to get to work like this, he doesn’t change his character and he will continue like this, and that will take him very high. We’ll see. He just won his first Slam and now he continues to win more tournaments. said Roger Federer’s former coach.

Right now, the world number 1 is the top favorite for the title on paper, as he will also arrive with a very good run after becoming champion in the Halle tournament. Meanwhile, Carlitos was unable to defend his crown at Queen’s, facing Wimbledon without the necessary training and with the mission of revalidating the title. However, Ljubicic puts the Murcian player at the same level as the San Candido player. What possibilities does it give Nole?: “Wimbledon is already around the corner. Federer won many after conquering Halle, we will see if it is also Sinner’s turn. Before Roland Garros there were many questions, especially from the physical point of view with respect to Alcaraz, Sinner and Djokovic, who was fine, but had no match rhythm. Now everything is different. Sinner and Alcaraz seem to be fine and are the favorites. Nole has had surgery, but he will try to be present: it would be something very nice. They are Jannik and Carlitos.”

Even so, Ljubicic wants to be on the safe side, as there are many games to play before reaching the grand final. The first thing of all is to see how each of them will face the first games before making a more precise prediction, since everything will also depend on the rivals they have to face. And on this surface, we have been able to see that certain players have more skills than others and will be really very difficult to fight. “The first three or four rounds will tell us how all the protagonists are doing. If the best survive the first week, they will become more and more favourites.”said the Croatian.
