Watch out, Nole, Baghdatis means business!

Knowing Baghdatis, he's probably joking...or maybe not, maybe Nole upset him or something.


Baghdatis: Djokovic doesn't scare me

Marcos Baghdatis says that the presence of world No. 1 Novak Djokovic at the Dubai Duty Free Open does not scare him. "When I am in the tournament I don't see Novak winning," the former Australian Open finalist told Gulf News. "I am here to win and I don't care if he is there. I doubt he can win here this week, not when I am here at least."

Djokovic’s 20-year-old younger brother, Marko, received a wild card into the draw. Marko is ranked No. 867 this week and has yet to win an ATP main-draw match.

I admire self-confidence.

Self-parody, not so sure about...

 

[Kat_YYZ]

too. much. Ouzo. :drink:

 

[LawrenceOfTennis]

He has the game to beat Djokovic but he also proved he is mentally weak to actually do it. Basel was a great example.

 

[Time Violation]

Novak has yet to win a tournament when Baghdatis is playing

 

[Nole Rules]

:haha:

 

[green25814]

Wow, thems fighting words from Marcos

See if he can back them up

 

[Sunset of Age]

I'd like to share a sip of that ouzo he's drinking. :angel:

It is one thing if Del Potro says something like this. He already has a slam and is in many people's eyes the true #5 if not #4 in the world.

But Baghdatis :tape: After the past few years he has had :tape:

Still, I admire his gumption. I would rather him be overly confident than to bend over like Troicki for Djokovic.

 

[ossie]

djoker doesnt scare me either. whats your point fatdatis.

I suppose that was his point; a player doesn't enter tournaments expecting to lose to anyone... or else why be there? You have to believe you can win. It's just the way he phrased it.

 

[Horatio Caine]

Doesn't matter if Djokovic doesn't scare him. Each week someone else does. :lol:


A bit of a redundant comment really, especially as he isn't even in Djokovic's half of the draw. He should be thinking about how he is going to counter Tsonga up first.

 

[Seingeist]

He's having a laugh.

 

[Tennis-Life]

:speakles: Was he drunk?

Just like Roddick and Ferrero are the true number ones... :facepalm:

Yea of course, nobody should step on court if he doesn't want to play/win. However, for someone who never won a single match against Nole, that is something a bit silly to say, unless he was joking.

Just like Roddick and Ferrero are the true number ones... :facepalm:

Unlike Murray they have a Slam, you have to accept that :zzz:

 

[Macbrother]

Cool now go back it up, big guy.

 

[BroTree123]

Baggy :yeah:

 

[Sham Kay Adams]

You'd think MTF users of all people would detect trolling when it slapped them in the face.

You'd think wrong
