Look at Novak and Rafa's greeting that tennis world is talking about: Is this proof they are not friends?
The best tennis player in the world, Novak Djokovic, will start playing the Masters in Rome today, where he is defending 600 points from last year's final. His first rival is Aslan Karatsev, and since Carlos Alcaraz is not playing, his main competitor for the title will be Rafael Nadal.
Nole and Rafa met at Foro Italico during their training sessions. Stefanos Tsitsipas was also there.
Both Tsitsipas and Nadal had no nice words for Djokovic during the Australian Open, when he was detained by the authorities, and then deported from the country without being given the possibility of defending the title.
Novak and Rafa also met in Madrid, when they greeted each other, and now they have met again in Rome.
Djokovic greeted both Tsitsipas and Nadal, and the impression is that it was much more cordial with Tsitsipas, while the encounter with Nadal seemed cold and professional.
Many are wondering on social media whether this is proof that Nadal and Djokovic are not really friends and that they are not on best of terms.
Mutual respect undoubtedly exists, but the comments that Nadal made while Novak was in trouble and the diametrically opposed views on the issue of vaccination, probably brought a "cooling of relations" between the great rivals.
