Chris Evert made her feelings known about Novak Djokovic's chances of winning the French Open

Amid the ongoing tournament, Chris Evert voiced her opinion about Djokovic's game and what she thinks about him winning his 25th title. She said that the French Open won't be the tournament where he wins his 25th Slam title, explaining that to win such a title, a player must constantly play their A game.

"The way he’s playing right now, he’s not gonna win. So he would have to play spectacular tennis like every single match. And I mean, I could see him definitely getting to the second week. I could see getting to a semi, but I don’t know him," Chris Evert said (via Tennis365).

"I don’t know after watching him the last few weeks, I don’t see him winning this title. I don’t see … you know… I think this week will tell a lot," she added.

Chris Evert recently shared a glimpse of having dinner with her son, Alex, amid the ongoing French Open.
