Alcaraz s coach: Only win if you can push Djokovic to the limit.

"With all respect for rivals, Djokovic is Djokovic - the best person in history. Therefore, we have to focus on ourselves. Alcaraz is playing a wonderful and confident tennis, but I do not dare to say that he is a bright candidate," Ferrero said at the US side press conference on September 3. Before, when Alcaraz lost Djokovic in the quarterfinals of Australian expanded. "This is not a revenge, but we desire to confront Djokovic. That match was painful, after Alcaraz took the lead in the first set, after seeming the injury would be serious ..., but in the end, Djokovic played especially excellent," Ferrero said.

Alcaraz's coach is also wary of a player who always knows how to overcome strict situations like Djokovic. According to the natural law, the Seriba star is slowly slowing down, but his competition instinct is still intact. Considering the competitive art, no one is equal.

However, according to Ferrero, the conditions in New York may be an advantage for Alcaraz. He explained: "In Melbourne, the match takes place at night, and each of Djokovic's shot is almost no mistake. In New York, I think we will fight at 15:00, and this condition is suitable for Alcaraz than ".

after losing Jannik Sinner at Roland Garros and Wimbledon, Djokovic recognizes the journey to the big matches to make the journey to the big matches to make the journey to the big matches to make the journey to the journey to make the journey to the journey to the matches to make the journey to the journey to make the journey to the journey to make the journey to the journey to make the game His body had to pay expensive and almost exhausted "fuel tank". The fact also shows that at the age of 38, Serbia player recently has difficulty in long -lasting matches.

Therefore, Ferrero determines the strategy for Alcaraz when encountering Djokovic in the semi -finals is to increase the rhythm and erosion of the opponent's strength. "I think Alcaraz is not too obsessed with Djokovic. He needs to push Djokovic to the limit, until the physical strength of the opponent feels the game becomes too difficult and too harsh. That's what we aim to ", he said he said.

However, Djokovic has many ways to reverse almost utopian situations, and have escaped many times. Therefore, the pace of the average shots of the 22 -year -old tennis player will be decisive.

"In the recent matches, Djokovic plays very fiercely from the end of the pitch, persistent fighting, less mistakes. But we believe that Alcaraz's high capital stability will create space and gradually cause the enemy's physical strength to decline. Will feel the fatigue, and in that perspective, I think Alcaraz has a little advantage thanks to the youth , "Ferrero added.

The Spanish coach also thinks that compatriot students are in a state of "the best in concentration, stability in psychology, no more ups and downs and the potential he can reach".

In fact, both in Cincinnati and in the past five matches in the United States, Alcaraz does not have any fear, does Always control the match from start to finish.

"Alcaraz is still very young, even though experienced. He is still growing and improving. Little by little, Alcaraz has shown the progress, the most clearly in the US expanding this year. He only has 5, 6 or 7 errors per set. It is different from before. The year ... his coach must be very bad, "Ferrero added, and showed humor about his role. Alcaraz reached an average of 6 ACEs per game, the performance of one was 64%, holding 84% of the serve and 68% of the two -point point, and winning 68 of the 69 gaming games and neutralizing the seven of the eight breaks that he faced.. The Spanish player also chose not to attend the tournament in Canada, taking place in just two weeks later Wimbledon, and that break helps him to recharge to confidently target the US. The loved ones and keep the mental state comfortably to continue playing at the best level , "Ferrero said.

However, Djokovic still has the ability to decipher every situation. Ferrero predicted that before the overwhelming pace of the Alcaraz could create, the Serbian player could play more attacks, shorten the scores and get the net more, instead of putting the match into the physical battle. Therefore, he warned that students need to be flexible and handle variables: Must be ready for all changes in techniques, tactics and emotions, especially when recalling memories in Melbourne, where Djokovic seems to have collapsed but revived. "Because before Djokovic, you are never allowed to be subjective ".
