Defending champion Novak Djokovic is gearing up for the French Open with low expectations but high hopes as he aims to claim a record 25th Grand Slam title. Despite a wobbly season, the top-ranked Serb remains confident in his ability to raise his game on the biggest stage.
After a disappointing performance at the Australian Open earlier this year, Djokovic has been working hard to find his rhythm and peak at Roland Garros. The 37-year-old is cautious but optimistic as he prepares to face local favorite Pierre-Hugues Herbert in his opening match.
Despite recent setbacks, including a head injury in Rome and a semi-final defeat in Geneva, Djokovic is determined to prove himself as a title contender. He acknowledges the challenges he has faced this season but remains focused on building his form and momentum to have a successful tournament.
While Djokovic admits that his expectations may sound arrogant to some, he is driven by a desire to make history and win the biggest titles in the sport. With a career that speaks for itself, Djokovic is determined to continue competing at the highest level and pushing himself to achieve greatness.
As the French Open kicks off, all eyes will be on Djokovic as he looks to overcome his recent struggles and make a strong statement on the clay courts of Roland Garros. Fans and critics alike will be watching closely to see if the defending champion can rise to the occasion and add another Grand Slam title to his impressive resume.
