Wimbledon’s seven times winning Serbian legend Novak Djokovic Know it yourself.
He may no longer celebrate the victory of the British Great Tournament in his career.
Ranked number one in the world Jannik Sinner23, made Serbia a 38-year-old tennis star in the semi-finals on Saturday. The readings were 3-0 (6-3, 6-3, 6-4).
– The truth strikes the face worse than ever before. Whenever I have to face Sinner or (Carlos) AlcarazinI’m already going to the match in half empty glass, Djokovic rained after the game.
“Won’t last anymore”
It was close that Djokovic would have encountered something other than Sinner in the semi -finals. Italian was badly on the way to the defeat Grigor Dimitrov I answer in the quarter -finals, but the Bulgarian player was injured and left in a fair lead.
And even if Djokovic might have beat someone else in the semi -finals, Alcaraz, 22, would have been in the final, winning the previous two Wimbledons.
– I don’t think this is about bad happiness, but about age. The body will not stand anymore, even though I take good care of it, Djokovic said.
The Serbian is still playing at a high level, but it is no coincidence that the French open finals had the power of youth, with two absolute leaders – Sinner and Alcaraz – at that time in five round thriller.
Djokovic has noticed that he starts to beep before the young stars.
– It’s hard to understand when I have proven this year to be able to play at a good level. As the tournament progresses further, it will inevitably begin to appear.
The front to a disadvantage
There are 24 Grand Slam tournaments in Djokovic, so the stars in their twenties still have a journey to Serb’s performance.
However, experience may no longer be an advantage, but a disadvantage.
– Sinner and Alcaraz are young and sharp. You just have to accept these things, meet the truth and still try your best, Djokovic decided.
