Currently ranked 45 in the world, Dusan Lajovic has posted wins over Medvedev, Murray, Rublev, and beat Novak Djokovic just a few weeks ago in Banja Luka.

On the mend in Belgrade after contracting Chicken Pox on the day he was scheduled to play in Paris, Dusan and I discussed Novak in length, and it was extremely illuminating. We discussed his wins over Alcaraz and Ruud in detail, and we talked about the loss to Medvedev at The US Open in 2021. We discussed the PTPA and he shared his opinions about their new tact.

We talked about Dusan's career in length, how he ended up with a one handed backhand in the land of the two hander, and how he has become elite by hiring a Spanish coach, Jose Perlas. He talked in length about what it's like to play Novak, Carlitos, and the other elite players on tour.
