"He's definitely the toughest for me between those" - Vasek Pospisil picks Novak Djokovic as his toughest opponent from the Big 3

Former Wimbledon doubles champion Vasek Pospisil revealed that Novak Djokovic has been the toughest opponent he has faced.

They have faced each other six times on the tour, with the Canadian unable to even win a set against the 21-time Grand Slam champion. On an episode of the Match Point Canada podcast, Pospisil mentioned that the Serb is the toughest opponent for him, from among the Big 3; which consists of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Djokovic.

"The toughest one for me is definitely Novak, also if you take into consideration the game style and the match-up with him being the best returner of all time and the serve being one of my strength, you know it makes a big challenge," he said.

Pospisil explained that the former World No.1 was the hardest player for him to implement his game style against.

"He's the hardest guy to implement my game style on," admitted the Canadian. "He's just so incredible at neutralizing big shots and big swings and making points long. For me every time I've played Novak, he's definitely the toughest opponent for me between those.

"Even the few times I've played Roger, I was actually two points away from beating him in Basel one year and I was up a break in third. Obviously, he's an insane talent but I could do something. With Novak, he doesn't give you anything so it's pretty tough."
