Last year, Novak Djokovic certainly was the Man of The Year for tennis. He won 3 out of 4 Grand Slams (Australia Open, Wimbledon and US Open) . He also became No 1 in the ATP ranking, dethroned Nadal.


2012 will be an exciting year for tennis. Rafael Nadal, who is seen as the contender for Greatest Tennis of All Time will definitely find a way back to his best. And Djokovic ( Djoker) can only become a more complete player on court. And can Roger Federer bring back his best form in 2012?

We as tennis fans can only wait for big matches to begin. ~
