Robson wrote off Novak: Kyrgios is one of the favorites!

Former tennis player Laura Robson points out that she is very sorry that Novak Djokovic will apparently not play in the last Grand Slam.

-” Without Novak in New York, I would bet on Medvedev, since the hard courts are involved. Especially since it’s the US Open, and a big stadium where he has enough space to play the return from deep, so he has enough time to react. I would say that Medvedev is the first favorite,” Laura began and continued:

She believes that the vaccine rules will not change.

-” Tennis is only one minor item in the politics of the American government. I can’t imagine them changing the rules because of one person, no matter how nice it would be for the entire tennis world. Certainly he would be a favorite if he could play. How he got through Wimbledon, there was no doubt at all. Every time he found himself in trouble, he found an extra gas or some fifth gear. We can’t do anything about Novak, but it’s a great pity for the tournament that it won’t be there.” – says Robson.

She also touched Nick Kyrgios, sent very nice words for him.

-” I’m glad he’s here. The Wimbledon final gave him the right direction. He finally realized that this is where he belongs talent-wise and the fast pitches in the US seem to be perfect for him. It gives a different dynamic to this game, it makes people show passion, whether they like him or not. He hasn’t felt the pressure on his shoulders for years, so it will be different for him now, because he is one of the favorites. He is playing with great confidence now and I hope he will continue like that,” concluded Laura Robson.
