Popovic, the criticism of the French public
“He started very well with a set and a break”, Popovic said, “but I was disappointed for him that the audience didn’t push him more. His first three games were a spectacle and the crowd in the stands carried him along. This time many were present just to make up the numbers: I think that when you play on Lenglen, you experience different games.”
