His chances in doubles (mixed definitely) to win a medal are higher than in singles. And Doubles are definitely less demanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that's what their NOC says. And they don't say "unter Vorbehalt" for him, so it's confirmed.

TSS should've announced Serbian team today, but they obviously didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the french swiss tennis website, they only talk about their "wish" to play together. It doesn't read as an hard confirmation that they will.

Well, whichever doubles team TSS announce, huge luck will be needed for a team to win one match at least. Zimonjic past his peak long time ago, and honestly, Djokovic and doubles cannot be put in the same sentence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(It's the same text actually). IMO, it's better to wait the official draw of the mixed double before reaching any conclusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
