Novak Djokovic and Li Na have been involved in some trash-talking ahead of their 'Battle of the Sexes' match set to start the China Open in Beijing, with the Chinese player claiming she has a plan for the game.
According to TennisWorldUSA.org, the two have already been exchanging some friendly banter on social media forums.
While Djokovic commented on his Sina Weibo microblog whether Li Na was ready to play him, Li responded by saying that the Serbian should not be happy too early, as she had a plan for the game, adding that it is not certain who will be the winner and the loser.
Li Na is one of the biggest sporting icons in China while Djokovic is a global superstar, the report said.
