Sometimes, no coaching at all is the best advice.
Juan Carlos Ferrero, the coach of Carlos Alcaraz, has spoken out about Novak Djokovic's injury during the tournament.
Juan Carlos Ferrero, the coach of Carlos Alcaraz, has spoken out about Novak Djokovic's injury during the Australian Open. He believes it is impossible for a professional athlete to have such an injury. Djokovic won the Australian Open with a three-centimeter muscle tear in his abdomen, making it difficult to move around. Ferrero doubts the extent of this injury, stating, "I am not going to call Djokovic a liar but I will only say that I find it difficult." He criticized Djokovic for exaggerating his injury, allowing him to take more breaks between sets. Although Australian Open director Craig Tiley later confirmed Djokovic's abdominal injury, it received skepticism from tennis player Alex De Minaur. This sparked a debate between former expert Todd Woodbridge and former world number one Ferrero. Ferrero stated, "I see it as difficult if it were so Djokovic would move as he did. Obviously, if he has the ability to withstand brutal pain, which may be good for him, he deserved to win." The debate continues, and the extent of Djokovic's injury remains a question for many. However, this also demonstrates the incredible resilience of the world number one tennis player, who deserves to win his 10th Australian Open championship.
