Izmisljene izjave igraca, ili mozda ne, tokom ovogodisnjeg RG
Selected quotes that players may or may not have said throughout the tournament, as told exclusively to Drew Lilley*.
*some of these quotes may not actually have been said. At all…
“Yeah, I suppose I am the favourite actually. I mean come on, I’ve won here six years out of seven and the only year I lost was when my knee had to be tied back on with string and glue before every match. I’m the best. It’s normal, no? Anyway, let’s have some more questions. I like them. Press conferences are my favourite part of any tournament.”
Rafael Nadal bigs up his chances of a record seventh win.
“Yeah now that you say it, I suppose I am the favourite. The only reason I lost here last year was because I had to have four days off and that Swiss fellah caught me cold. Rafa’s not bad on clay but let’s face it, once I dropped the gluten there was no living with the Djoker…”
Novak Djokovic warms to the idea of a “Novak Slam”.
“No, I’m the favourite.”
Rafa.
“No you’re not, I am.”
Nole.
“I’m absolutely gutted I got knocked out here. This totally ruins my preparations for the rest of the summer. I might actually pull out of Wimbledon and the Olympics, I’m that distraught.”
Roger Federer, quoted in English, French, German, Swiss German…
“Nope. I did it all myself. I couldn’t really hear the crowd anyway.”
Any French player after a heroic victory.
“I wish my husband would stop snoring. I’ve got the hopes of 1.341 billion people on my shoulders already and I can’t even get a decent night’s sleep.”
Na Li gives her other half a verbal broadside.
“I looked at a replay after the match and it turned out that the umpire was right after all.”
Andy Roddick in unusually magnanimous mood.
“I’ve changed my mind, I’m coming back next year.”
Arnaud Clement, busily stashing his retirement present in his kit bag.
“It’s the lyrics to ‘Boyfriend’ by Justin Bieber in Russian.”
Janko Tipsarevic showcases his new tattoo.
“Ajde!”
Ana Ivanovic
OK, none of these quotes was actually uttered by any of the people above (though the Na Li one could be true). But wouldn’t it be fun if they did actually say that?
