Novak Djokovič - Gael Monfils

Australian Open, the first grand slam of the year with many good matches after break of tennis, its hard to not loose a mind, but yet we have a second round and very good match with a lot of history. Two great players of different styles will meet here, a ex no.1 Novak Djokovič and miracoulous player Gael Monfils.

Let's talk about players :

Novak Djokovič (ATP 14) - Serbian, we all know everything about him, yet he have some improvements after long break without a tennis, before this tournament he didn't play for almost 7 months and that long time. He got long rehab, he made new decision in coaching staff, so now he is old brand new Nole! - He can serve decent serve, he is more flexible than before in my opinion and much more agressive, he missed tennis very much - he have that fire in eyes.

Gael Monfils (ATP 39) - Frenchman after many timeouts from tennis in last year because of injuries, he made his comeback, he even won a title in start of the season, so he is in good shape and he can fight on this one for sure. Gael is very talented player, but like many of them, he didn't get the right hand of coaching, he was very unstable, but now in few last years he is getting stronger and more stable. Monfils have superb serve, very strong forehand hits and he is fast as hell.

One con is that he can't find himself against strong players like Novak.

In the end - Both players met 16 times already and no secret Novak won all matches, but for this match i can feel, something will happen. Frenchman can make serbian sweat a lot - this match of two comebackers to tour will be great.
