Djokovic's Age: The Power of Perception
At 36 years old, Novak Djokovic is proving that age doesn't define his performance.
At 36 years old, Novak Djokovic is proving that age doesn't define his performance. He recently won his 23rd consecutive Grand Slam event by defeating Jordan Thompson in the second round of Wimbledon. This victory marked his 350th match win at major tournaments, making him the third player to achieve this milestone after Roger Federer and Serena Williams. Djokovic shows no signs of slowing down and believes that one's age is determined by how they feel in their body, mind, and heart. He attributes his youthful spirit to spending time with his children and his love for the sport he started playing as a young boy. Djokovic feels fortunate to have a healthy body even after 20 years of professional tennis, allowing him to compete at the highest level. He aims to add more achievements to his career, including potentially tying Roger Federer's record of eight Wimbledon titles and becoming the oldest men's champion at SW19 in the Open Era. Djokovic's continuous improvement and hunger for knowledge have contributed to his success, both on and off the court. He embraces the pressure and expectations that come with playing on the biggest stages, using them as motivation to make history and create his own journey. In the upcoming rounds of Wimbledon, Djokovic will face either Tomas Martin Etcheverry or Stan Wawrinka, knowing that he holds a positive record against both players.
