Jimmy Connors predicts uncertainty at Roland Garros owing to Nadal and Djokovic…
Jimmy Connors, an eight-time Grand Slam champion, believes that this year’s Roland Garros tournament could be quite surprising. The American backs up his argument by citing Rafael Nadal’s fitness concerns and World No.1 Novak Djokovic’s recent drop in form. With Roger Federer gone and Nadal and Djokovic not doing well, Connors feels there will be a change of guard at the 2017 French Open. The former World No.1 indicated that following the Big Three’s dominance, now is the time for a younger player to rise up and take over.
