Đoković u Melburnu: Prvo Medvedev, a onda Kirjos

Početak prošle godine je bio košmar za Novaka Đokovića, a sada može da bude raj.

Već je potvrđeno njegovo učešće na Australijan openu, prvom Grend slemu u sezoni, a turnir startuje u ponedeljak 16. januara.

Nakon osvajanja turnira u Adelejdu on juri brojne rekorde na prvom grend slemu sezone, ali nema nikakvu nameru da odmara već će odigrati nekoliko mečeva pre toga.

Prvo će izaći na terene Australijan opena 11. januara od 14:15 (4.15 po našem) kada će trenirati sa Danilom Medvedevom, a onda će dva dana kasnije odigrati meč sa Nikom Kirjosom na Rod Lejver Areni u 18:30 po lokalnom vremenu (8.30 po našem) .

U pitanju je "Perfect Practice" serija duela koji će zapravo biti trening mečevi igrani pred publikom, u uslovima pravog duela.

Tu će biti sudije i skupljači loptica, a karte za ove duele će se prodavati po cenama od 5 do 10 australijskih dolara.
