LONDON --
Serbia’s Nenad Zimonjić and Canada’s Daniel Nestor take on the Bryan brothers from the U.S. in today’s final of the men’s doubles at Wimbledon.
Zimonjić and Nestor, the defending champions, qualified for the final after a heroic comeback from two sets down against James Blake and Mardy Fish.
Speaking to B92, Zimonjić said that he and Nestor currently had a record of 5-3 against the Bryan brothers, though this would be their first match at the All England Club.
“I’ve only played against them on grass with Santoro and we lost twice. However, Daniel and I have a 5-3 lead over them. It’ll be a very tough match, and they’ve been in great form. Both teams serve well, make few mistakes, and whoever capitalizes on their opponent’s rare mistakes will win,” said the Serbian tennis star, adding that he did not feel under any pressure going into the final.
“It’s a five-set match, so there’ll be room for twists and turns. That gives us the chance to be a bit more relaxed when we enter the match, because we know we’ll have time to find what we need against our opponents,” he said.
