Novak Djokovic and Miomir Kecmanovic will face Jannik Sinner and Stan Wawrinka at the Paris Masters next week, with fans eagerly anticipating the clash between two tennis legends and two young talents on the ATP Tour.
The final ATP Masters tournament of the season will begin at the AccorHotel Arena in Paris on October 30, where the top-ranked singles players will battle it out in the hopes of ending the season on a good note.
However, the doubles will also be providing some thrilling entertainment, with 24-time Grand Slam champion Djokovic teaming up with his compatriot Kecmanovic to take on World No. 4 Sinner and three-time major champion Wawrinka in the opening round.
Generations join forces for epic doubles clash
36-year-old Djokovic and 38-year-old Wawrinka have both been on the circuit for a long time after having made their ATP Tour debuts in the early 2000s.
While Djokovic has dominated the sport as a member of the Big Three, amassing 24 Grand Slam titles and a record 396 weeks as World No. 1, Wawrinka has also seen a lot of success, winning three Grand Slam titles in the 2010s.
Furthermore, 22-year-old Sinner and 24-year-old Kecmanovic are both in the earlier stages of their careers. Nevertheless, the former has already broken into the Top 4 in the ATP Ranking and won his first ATP Masters 1000 title earlier this season at the 2023 Canadian Open. Meanwhile, Kecmanovic has an ATP 250 title to his name, having won the 2020 Austrian Open in Kitzbuhel.
The match is expected to be an epic showdown between two pairs of talented players from different generations.
Although Djokovic has a dominant head-to-head lead of 21-6 over Wawrinka and 3-0 over Sinner, both the Swiss and Italian player are leading their respective head-to-heads against Kecmanovic, meaning it is difficult to predict how the clash will play out.
