Novak Djokovic is in Adelaide and hoping to ruin hometown hero Thanasi Kokkinakis' title defence. Here's what the Aussie had to say about it. 👇 9WWOS
“Judging by the list of players that are playing in a 250 event it’s not really 250 event. It’s maybe a 500 event or maybe a 1000. Some of the best players in the world playing here, both men and women’s side.”“The field is super strong. You have Medvedev, Felix, Rublev. You have really, really top guys.
"Djokovic is playing, [and he's the] best-ever, or one of the best-ever. It's a crazy field, but I always love the support when I come down here." “In the second set I really had to change my gameplan,” Andreescu said. “I told myself to go for it whatever happens happens. Muguruza looked in outstanding form in the first set, hitting eight winners to two and converting three of five break points while not facing a break point herself.
