Current no.1 Tennis player Novak Djokovic is facing in
quarter-finals of ATP-Doha Qatar against with tough competitor world no. 7 Ivo
Karlovic.
He is suffered tiny ankle injury at start of the match and
looked little distracted against Sergiy Stakhovsky in his match. But, it looks
like that he is most fit player in the world and won the match with 6-2 and
6-1.
After Mubadala World Tennis Championship’s withdraw, Novak
was suffering fever and started journey against fellow citizenship Dusan
Lajovic. Similar, World no. 2 Rafael Nadal defeated German qualifier Michael
Berrer with hard fight.
Ivo Karlovic always show himself fit and have brutal serve
but his backhand side can be shaky.
While he is not prone to cause the Doha coordinators a
migraine by slamming out ahead of schedule, he could well be pushed to single
break or tie-break edges by Karlovic, and it would flag his first genuine test
of the year after he cleared Stan Wawrinka aside in Mubadala.
Head to Head
Both players faced each other in 2008 and head to head
Djokovic and Karlovic are 1-1. Karlovic has advantage here to win this battle
Djokovic and Karlovic are scheduled on Centre Court, not
before 2:00PM GMT.
