The clash between Rinkky Hijikata and Novak Djokovic at Miami Open has unleashed many controversies among the fans of both tennis players. Hijikata, a promising young player, told in a recent interview that during his game against the Serbian, observed a Djokovic move he had never used before, which deeply surprised him. According to Hijikata, this unexpected “makeup” triggered a wave of debate among the fans of both players, who immediately took sides on the situation.

Hijikata’s statements aroused a certain sensation: the fans of Djokovic and Hijikata collided on social media, creating a tense atmosphere. While some defended the Serbian, claiming that in tennis any strategy was valid, others questioned the legality and ethics of the move.

However, Djokovic’s response was not long in coming. In the post-match press conference, Djokovic responded to the accusations of hijikata with calm and firmness. “I tried several ways to play and new tactics. There is nothing illegal in what I did. My preparation for this tournament was very intense and I worked hard to improve all aspects of my game,” said Serbian tennis player.

Djokovic continued that innovation and adaptation are fundamental in modern tennis and that any player who wants to stay at the top must be willing to evolve and try new techniques. “Tennis is a sport in continuous change. The key is the preparation and the ability to adapt to any situation during the game,” said Djokovic, clarifying that his approach was the result of his hard training and not an incorrect play.

The response of the Serbian champion has satisfied many of his fans, who praised his professional attitude and his ability to manage criticism with maturity. For his part, Hijikata expressed his respect for Djokovic and for his game, although he could not help but feel surprised by the unexpected move.

The accident at Miami Open not only left its mark in the rivalry between the two players, but also triggered a debate on the evolution of the tactics of tennis and on the border between legitimate innovation and played that could be considered not ethical. However, Djokovic’s response has shown once again because it remains one of the greatest players in history, keeping calm and safely defending his approach.
