“This year the outcome is a little more open,” predicted the world number one and named his extended circle of favorites: “Casper Ruud is certainly one of five candidates, there are also Alexander Zverev, Andrej Rublew, Stefanos Tsitsipas, all players who will be in a big tournament this year won.”

The 24-time Grand Slam champion is currently preparing for the French Open at the ATP tournament in Geneva and will face Yannick Hanfmann from Karlsruhe in the round of 16 on Wednesday evening. Djokovic is still without a tournament win this year; for Nadal (37), who has been plagued by injury problems for a long time, reaching the quarter-finals in Brisbane in January is the top result of 2024.
