He described the Serbian ace with great admiration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Yes, well, first of all, thank you all for coming here, for supporting us. This was a special match for me to play in the Roland Garros semi-finals against Novak; it&#8217;s incredible. I played my best tennis, which makes me happy. He is a true inspiration for all of us, for all young players, and I wish him all the best for the rest of the season. We are all honored that we can still watch him in tennis,&#8221; Sinner said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sinner continued almost in the same breath, emphasizing that for him, Novak \u0110okovi\u0107 is the greatest player in the history of tennis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s very difficult; he has achieved so much. He is the best tennis player in history, it&#8217;s incredible\u2026 Of course, I tried not to think about it. I went out on the court, you know what&#8217;s across the net, I tried to play as best as possible, to prepare for such a situation. I knew it would be tough, looking at our previous encounters, we are close. I am in a major final for the first time here.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He says he will give himself a little rest before the grand final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m thinking, this is a special moment, one of the biggest in my career; I will try to enjoy it, to rest for Sunday. I&#8217;m happy, this is super special for me.
