Chris Evert Doubts Novak Djokovic Winning 25th Grand Slam Before Roland Garros

Novak Djokovic, now 37, is facing significant challenges in his 2025 tennis season, with early exits in several tournaments and no match wins on clay this year. Despite his legendary status and 24 Grand Slam titles, former tennis star Chris Evert expressed skepticism about Djokovic's chances of winning another Major, particularly the upcoming French Open, highlighting his recent poor form and injuries. Djokovic has skipped the Rome Masters for the first time since 2007 to focus on training and will play in the ATP 250 Geneva tournament as a preparation for Roland Garros, where he is not among the top favorites. Evert acknowledged Djokovic's past brilliance, especially on grass, suggesting he might still have a chance at Wimbledon, but considers a French Open victory unlikely. Djokovic's struggles include consecutive defeats at Monte Carlo and Madrid, withdrawal from the Italian Open, and a recent lack of motivation noted by coaches. Despite the doubts, Djokovic remains a contender, ranked sixth globally and holding a wildcard entry to Geneva, but experts agree his pursuit of a 25th Grand Slam title faces steep odds.
