Olympic champ chases US Open triumph

China Daily  

Novak Jockovic and Carlos Alacraz. Djokovic won his 24th Grand Slam title in New York last year to move two ahead of Spaniard Rafael Nadal, whose career is winding down, and who will not compete at the year's final major, and four clear of retired Swiss maestro Roger Federer. "He's looking to sort of separate himself from Federer and Nadal, that's really is what it boils down to," former world No 1 and ESPN broadcaster John McEnroe told reporters. "It was a fairy tale," former women's world No 1 and ESPN commentator Chris Evert said of Djokovic striking gold in Paris. He heads to the year's final Grand Slam on the back of a stunning 4-6 7-6 6-4 second-round defeat by French veteran Gael Monfils at last week's Cincinnati Open and called it the "worst match" of his career.
