The excellent performance in the last two tournaments of the ATP Masters Series 1000, were enough for Novak ковиokovi. To be the main favorite for the Roland Garros title again, according to the former Grand Slam champion Mats Wilander.

The Swede, who now works as an analyst for Eurosport television, believes that Novak, by winning the Masters in Rome and reaching the semifinals in Madrid, has shown that he is a big favorite to win the second annual Grand Slam tournament.

- The triumph in Rome will give Novak self-confidence, and on top of that I think he has a sense of revenge for everything that happened to him since the beginning of the year when he was deported from Australia. "He is the defender of the trophy in Paris and is a big favorite this year for a new triumph," said Wilander.

According to Wilander, young Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz will be the biggest threat to Djokovic if Rafael Nadal misses Roland Garros due to injury.

- I have never been a tennis player to play as well as Carlos. He is quite emotional, but at the same time he has a good attitude, he seems relaxed on the field and the complete opposite of what we see in Nadal. "Nadal never looks relaxed and has the best competitive attitude I've ever seen, while Carlos has a different mentality and shows all the positives," said Wilander.
