"The tournament will be very interesting. I think that Nadal and especially Federer, are among top favorites for winning the trophy. The tournament lasts for two weeks, and step by step, we will see what can happen.

"But, having in mind the rankings, and the experience in playing grand slams, the three of us are the biggest favorites."

Djokovic also shared his view on the future of tennis when the big trio of Nadal, Federer and himself retire one day.

"Certainly that Zverev is the leader of this new generation, having in mind his results in past several years. Tsitsipas is right behind him, and maybe will soon catch up with him in the rankings," Djokovic predicted.

He also selected some young talents for the future.

"If we don't look at the rankings, there are several players that have the dedication, professionalism and passion and show a great potential. Probably we can look at them as leaders of world tennis in future, and those are Denis Shapovalov, Felix (Auger Aliassime) and Dominic Thiem," Djokovic concluded.
