Ladies and gentlemen. present there was a peculiar event for our tennis player. Hubert Hurkacz faced the best tennis player in the past of this sport, Serb Novak Djokovice.
This fact itself is not so unusual, due to the fact that our player had already crossed with Serb 8 times in his rocket career. but HuHu, after 8 false starts, yet won this rivalry. 39-year-old Djokovic is no longer the number 1 number in the planet for any time (it presently ranks the eighth position in the ATP ranking, but the defeat with the Pole causes the Chinese thousandths to fall out of the top ten) and his defeats happen more frequently than two, 7 or 15 years ago, but being among those who have won with him is the reason that you can sit at the stove after years and grandchildren about this fact all evening, or possibly respective nights, tell.
Especially in the case of a Hurkaz, specified a communicative would be incomplete. HuHu can boast from now on that in his career he defeated not only the best in history, but besides the another 2 who together with Serb form the tercets of the most prominent tennis tenors. The defeat with the Pole erstwhile had to be swallowed by both Roger Federer (a quarter-final of Wimbledon in 2021) and Rafael Nadal (three years ago in the Roman millennium). Interestingly, all 3 defeated on their favourite surfaces. That's Djoko on the hard, Swiss on the grass, Spaniard on the brick.
TVP athletics has stated that specified players who have all 3 of the best players in the past of the Era Open is, counting already with Poles, only four. Apart from the Pole, they're all large names. Everyone at least erstwhile won the Grand Slam. We are talking about the Scottish Murray, Austrian Thiemie and German with the Russian pedigree Zwieriewa.
You can envy our tennis player's company. It's all tennis cream.
It's just to supplement. Hurkacz's rival in the 3rd circular will be 21-year-old and 277. in the current ranking of China's Zhu, who just sensationally defeated Italy's Musetti. The Chinese, especially erstwhile playing at home, should be very careful. However, a different score than a Pole's triumph would be, at least for me, rather a sensation. possibly bigger than today's HuHu win with Djokovice. I mean, who's to win with than a guy who's never been in the top 200 planet ranking before? He's not in the first year. After the possible elimination of the Chinese is waiting for the Hurricane individual from the 2 Davidovich-Fokin and Tiafoe. With each Pole has a negative balance of meetings, with each lost the last 3 skirmishes. Hispanic (balance 2:5) had late surrendered in the Beijing final. With the American (balance 3:5), he besides has a score to settle. For this year's skirmish in Paris. So it won't be easy in the 4th circular of the Shanghai tournament. And you gotta get to her first. I'm not going to compose about the next ladder level, due to the fact that I'm going to produce myself, and the Hurtman is going to play a trick on me, just like Iga today, and I'm going to stay with this text of mine like Himilsbach with this English. Let me just mention that a possible rival in the quarter-final could be Shelton (it would be an chance to rematch for the US Open), and in the semi-final Zwiereev. With him, contrary to appearances, Pole has the above-mentioned players with recognized names, statistic best. Although it's besides negative (2:3). The final rival? I propose we discuss this erstwhile it makes sense. So, for example, erstwhile the Hurricane passes at least another 2 or possibly even 3 rounds.
PS
I, in general, don't compose about men's tennis. besides boring, besides predictable. With this Hubert it's like a temporary improvement of mood, if you can talk about something like this after the next 15th of this year, the defeat of Igi Christmas in the WTA tournament cycle. Failure, which, if it does not definitely deprive her of her chances of promotion to the WTA Finals, surely causes these chances to be, if no of the ahead competitors retreat from these professions, for example due to injury, truly very small.
