Wow!

With Djoko, here are the two biggest tennis IQs on grass...

Backhand slice battle, huge forehand, big serve, and a few question marks for each player about keeping up a high intensity of play for 3 hours.

And above all, a revenge match for both pretty boys. They’ve both been through hell with injuries, and they’re coming back to life here at Wim.

So sure, we’ve seen more comebacks from the Italian this year, especially on clay, but his last match before Wim was still a retirement at Roland Garros because of a hip injury.

On Dimi’s side, we’re mostly worried about his stamina, his overall gas tank. But fuck, against Mensik he was on a mission, and I felt he was pretty much invincible, physically too, even with a little dip in set 2. Berrett had his dip as well!

I guess these guys know each other very well too, since they both live in Monaco. They’ve only played twice officially, but they must know each other’s strengths and weaknesses really well from training in Monte Carlo.

So I think this match will be decided in the mind, not to say in their shorts! Both have insane mental strength, and a maximum level on grass of at least top 5 in the world. I’m really excited about this match, which I see being very tight!
