James Blake: Grigor can win Grand Slam title this year

Speaking of men's tour, we have a group of players, as Dimitrov Raonich and Nishikori, who, although they are slightly older than the US hopes now are the new wave in tennis. Which one do you think is closest to the Grand Slam?


- For me Dimitrov is closest to such achievement. The game is adaptable to all surfaces and it just needs to match all components. Raonich progressed, but I feel that it relies too much on his serve and if a tournament is starting his shot is not going, would find it difficult to survive in seven consecutive games. Nishikori is a great player, he beat me a few times, although I felt that play well in those fights. But Kay sweat serious about anywhere with this style will be difficult to find enough strength to win seven matches in a row. His tank must be extremely large. Do not get me wrong, each of the three has the qualities of a Grand Slam title, but my favorite is Dimitrov.



 How long will he need? 

- It could happen this year. Nole, Roger, Rafa and Andy are incredibly talented, but it was obvious that they can be defeated. It is possible that young to do so, but must show at their best in every component of the game.
