Novak Djokovic is roused and willing to bash young stars
Djokovic will be competing in Paris-Bercy for his penultimate tournament of the 2022 season. Due to his ineligibility for vaccination in some nations, the world No. 7 wasn’t allowed to compete as frequently as he would have preferred this year. However, he hopes to finish powerfully in Paris and at the ATP Finals in Turin.
Alcaraz had elegantly won the US Open while Djokovic was deported from the country, making him the youngest world No. 1 in ATP history. The 35-year-old has been absent from the tour for several extended periods this year. The Serb has now issued a warning to young tennis stars as they continue to rise to the top.
