“They know that is going to be a big battle all the time. They know it’s going to be very important to take the chances they’ve got because if not, maybe in the future, they won’t have those chances.”
Corretja also warned both men that they would have to be at 100 per cent if they did meet in the championship match at the US Open. “And for Carlos, it’s very important also to adjust of the game of Novak, because many times when he’s aggressive, he dictates and maybe the other opponents, they cannot handle it. But against Novak, he knows he needs to go for one more shot because no-one can defend and can push the ball very deep into the court [like him],” he explained.
“And for Novak also it’s knowing how Carlos’s forehand is coming, how he can run, how he can defend, but also how he can attack. I think that they’re learning that is going to be huge. And it always is going to be tough if one of them doesn’t play 100 per cent they will fail because if they play 99 per cent, it’s not going to be enough.”
