Beijing time on February 21 news, this week at the same time two ATP500 tournaments, Dubai tournament and Acapulco Open, everyone divided into two ways, led by Nadal 5 TOP10 players to Mexico to participate in the Acapulco Open, Djokovic and other players are going to West Asia to participate in dubai, the two tournaments are about to start!
Winning the Australian Open at the beginning of the year not only helped Nadal temporarily become the first man in the history of men's tennis, BUT also gave Nadal the 90th championship trophy of his career. Therefore, in the Acapulco Open, Nadal will impact the 91st crown of his career, the strongest opponent of the championship is undoubtedly the Russian Medvedev, in addition, Zverev Jr., Tsitsipas, Beretini also have the strength to compete for the title, so it seems that Nadal will not be easy to attack the 91st crown. At present, the signing table has been released, Nadal is in the upper half with Medvedev and Beretini, and Zverev Jr. and Tsitsipas are in the lower half.
Compared with Nadal, Djokovic, who participated in the Dubai race, was slightly more relaxed, after all, the lineup of the Dubai race was not as luxurious as the Acapulco Open, but the strength of supernova stars such as Rublev, Aliasim, Sina, Shapovalov, Hulkach and so on should not be underestimated. Due to the forced expulsion from the Australian Open at the beginning of the year, it was not until the Dubai race that the world's first Djokovic finally ushered in the debut of the new season. In the first half, Djokovic's main opponents are Aliassim and Shapovalov.
Playing in two different tournaments, Djokovic and Nadal, who are the strongest opponents in the GOAT battle, will not meet for the time being, and interestingly, Nadal may even help Djokovic to hold the world number one throne: if Nadal wins the 91st title of his career at the Acapulco Open, it means that Medvedev's championship failure, Djokovic has a high probability of being able to hold the No. 1 throne!
Of course, for Medvedev, the Acapulco Open, even if There is Nadal participating, the Russians will try their best to win the championship, as long as they can win the final championship, Medvedev will definitely surpass Djokovic and become the first in the new world, thus breaking the monopoly of the "Fernardmu" Big Four on the world's first for 18 years!
