Roger federer and rafael nadal need a 'miracle' to stop novak djokovic

Djokovic, 31, has rediscovered his best form and has now won the last three tournaments he's played in. The US Open was one of them - his 14th Grand Slam title after lifting the

Wimbledon title in July. Djokovic now sits second in the ATP rankings and needs to overturn a 215-point gap to Nadal. Law thinks it's a sure thing and told the Tennis Podcast:

"Barring a miracle, I think he's going to end the year as world No.1. "Whilst he's playing like this and the way he is scheduling himself as well, he's playing a

very clever game. "He's now worked it out, he's going to save himself for what matters in his view. "I know it's very easy to get carried away with these things and

take the current status quo and assume it will continue, but he's got the form and the history of having had these sort of periods of utter domination. "It is had to imagine where

it will stop. "The obvious full stop is the clay-court season when Rafael Nadal kicks into gear because the assumption is that will happen but it might not. "Nadal has had injuries

and maybe he won't be able to get back to his best. Even if he does, if Djokovic plays like this, who beats the guy? And how do you beat the guy?" Djokovic returns to action later

this month at the Paris Masters, which takes place a week before the ATP Finals in London. ATP RANKINGS 1) Rafael Nadal - 7660 2) Novak Djokovic - 7445 3) Roger Federer - 6260 4) Juan
