Novak Djokovic’s future is quite uncertain after this season. There is no doubt that the Serbian legend will continue to play in 2025, but it is difficult to predict whether he will be able to win any more major titles before his retirement. Nole will turn 38 in 2025 and the gap to the two current best players in the world (Sinner and Alcaraz) seems to have increased in recent months.
The 24-time Grand Slam champion defeated Carlos Alcaraz in the final of the Paris Olympics, taking the gold medal and completing the puzzle. At the same time, the former world No. 1 has suffered several very surprising defeats this season and has not won a single title.
first time since 2017, when his year was affected by a serious elbow injury. After deciding to undergo surgery, Nole returned in style in 2018 by winning the Wimbledon Championships and the US Open.
The former world No. 1 – who enjoyed a vacation in Maldives with his family – presented the trophy during the Belgrade ATP 250 last week and will be present in Malaga for the Davis Cup Finals, where he will pay tribute to his great rival Rafa Nadal.
Nole’s long journey in professional tennis has been told very well by his former coach Marian Vajda. “When we started working, I thought it couldn’t get any better. He is the best player who could have deserved it, and it was just amazing” – Vajda said in a recent interview with ‘Radio Television of Serbia’.
“As a coach, I saw how he was progressing, how he was training better, how he was developing, but for him the goal was to be tennis number one and win all those tournaments, Grand Slam titles. It’s been an incredible journey, but when I look back on it now and see all those numbers, it really is an incredible achievement. I could never have imagined that he would win so many titles and tournaments and be the best in the history of tennis” – he added.
The collaboration between Novak and Vajda was interrupted after the 2021 season, due to Djokovic’s decision to participate in the Tokyo Olympics despite being in the running to complete the ‘Calendar Grand Slam’.
