Djokovic’s sister or something?

Novak Djokovic's convincing 2011 season 

apparently has some  believe he will never lose - again. 

I have no idea who Joanne Gerstner is, but after reading her thoughts on whether World No. 1 Novak Djokovic would win both, the current Indian Wells – and approaching Miami North American Masters tournaments, Gerstner wrote the following over at ESPN.

“Why not? When Djokovic is dialed in, as he has been for nearly a year now, he has proved to be impossible to beat. Federer, Nadal, Murray and del Potro, along with the rest of the field, have yet to show they can raise their games -- for an entire match -- to surpass Djokovic. Everything they can do, Djokovic can do better on the big stage. It's clear that he's relishing every chance to play at such a high level, showing the emotional flair that fans love.”

Now, don’t get me wrong Eye On Sports tennis enthusiasts, but Gerstner, makes it seem as Djokovic could single-handedly lay a smack down on the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, which I assure you, certainly is not the case.

For Gerstner to make it seem like no one on the face of the planet stands a chance against Djokovic is pure foolishness. The fact of the matter is that the Djoker just got his tail handed to him in straight sets by World No. 4 Andy Murray in the semifinals at Dubai and that World No. 3 Roger Federer ended his 43-match winning streak a year ago at the French Open, before failing to close out what should have been another win against Djokovic when he held two match points in their quarterfinal matchup at last year’s U.S. Open.

Hell, even though he’s lost seven straight time to Djokovic, even Rafael Nadal would seem to have a great chance of beating Djokovic after their epic final at this year’s Australian Open.

One thing’s for sure, Novak Djokovic isn’t going to rule the ATP World Tour this season like he did a year ago when he unfurled one of those once-in-a-quarter-century seasons.

While it’s quite possible Djokovic could still manage to win three majors this season (I have him winning two) I think the simple fact that Djokovic will ‘come back to earth’ with a more ‘normal’ season says he certainly won’t be able to duplicate the result he unfurled a year ago.

Not only that, but apparently, someone needs to tell Joanne Gerstner, that God hasn’t made an athlete that can’t be beaten – even the world’s No. 1 tennis player!
