As it is already known, Marjan Vajda became the coach of his compatriot Alex Molcan.
Journalists asked him if Aleks would be the “new Novak Djokovic”?
- “It’s nice from the Serbian media. I have a great collaboration with them and I like their approach. I know that I gained their favor, they popularized me even before here in Slovakia, I am grateful to them for always believing in my work. ”- began Vajda.
- “Alex has the desire and ambition to be the best. He and Novak had a similar thing, it is also important that he can become a great player. I have always been lucky to have ambitious players around me, those who are hardworking, and eager to get as far as they can. Regardless of whether it is Novak Djokovic or Dominik Hrbaty. They were ‘dragons’. I can’t predict where anyone will end up, but I believe that I will help Alex and his team to progress. We’ll see. Djokovic was not the best when we started. With honest and dedicated work, he achieved everything. ”- says Marjan.
The fact that he is from Slovakia means a lot to Vajda.
- “I don’t know how much mental strength I have left after Novak, but I will try. I will still be able to advise Alex on the different tactics of various opponents. I know a lot of players. Now I will be able to go home after the tournament. Being with Novak was challenging, in the beginning, we were always together, training outside Slovakia. This will calm me down, I will have time for my family. ”- adds Marjan.
And it is already known that he invited Goran and Novak to train together in Paris.
- ”I have already told Ivanisevic that we train together in Paris. Let’s get ready. Still, I don’t know if that will materialize. Right-handers have a problem playing against left-handers, they like right-handers. If Novak trains with left-handed Nadal at Roland Garros, then Molcan also has a chance. In any case, we will try. “- concluded Marjan Vajda.
