Profile: Novak Djokovic, tennis court warrior distributor opinion | Tennis News

Novak Djokovic grew up in the rain bombing the Serbian NATO bomb, arguably one of the greatest tennis players of all time.

But the 34-year-old, who holds the record for 20 Grand Slams, the same number as his great rivals Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, never fails to split and merge.

The tremendous achievements on the court have often been overshadowed by some mistakes and failures.

The last setback was on Thursday when he had his own A visa to enter Australia has been revoked.

The Serb landed in Melbourne after it was revealed that he had medical exception He did not have to prove that he was fully vaccinated against COVID-19 to play in the Australian Open.

The exception granted by the tournament organizers after their request was approved by two medical panels, he aroused his anger among Australians who have suffered blockades and restrictions for two years.

It was the last blow to a seemingly doomed man who was in the same holy esteem as Federer or Nadal’s champions Federer or Nadal.

There are those who see Djokovic’s make-up as something too calculating, a lively and hard presence that tends to affect him, a little “new age”.

I am very uncomfortable with how Mr. Djokovic has been treated. No one deserves to be humiliated like that. This could be fixed before traveling. Not a good picture #Australia to send to the world. https://t.co/EUkkJl2mrR

Passionate temperament

The passionate temperament, a feature that is often not in the DNA of Federer and Nadal, bubbles too much.

Her evil predicament in the U.S. Open in 2020 was a photo of demons hiding inside from time to time as a ball slammed into the throat of a female judge.

Djokovic, who was 12 years old in training in Munich and escaping the NATO bombing in his hometown, who fled Belgrade, often feels that he cannot fall.

The decision to hold a series of exhibitions in the Balkans in the middle of the pandemic led to some positive COVID-19 tests, including for him and his wife Jelena, and highlighted the irresponsibility of the plan.

He then publicly expressed his doubts about COVID-19’s vaccination program, which he named “Novax.”

Australian player Nick Kyrgios once accused one of his most significant detractions of having a serious need to please Djokovic, describing the Serbian’s “cup of love” gesture on the post-victory court as “horrible”.

However, there is no question about the career achievements and decision of the first player to cross the $ 150 million prize money barrier.

Four years ago, Djokovic’s career was in turmoil. Unable to shake off the enduring consequences of elbow surgery, he underwent an initial exit from the French Exit, which was once the site of many setbacks.

With 12 of the top 20 finishers in 12 years, Djokovic threatened to skip Wimbledon.

He changed his mind and suddenly rejuvenated, taking his fourth title at the All England Club and successfully defending it a year later, saving two points in the tournament in an epic final against Federer.

Djokovic has now won 20 Grand Slam titles in his 86th career. He also took first place in the world in a record number of weeks, improving on Pete Sampras ’record.

Competing for greatness, he has a record of victories against Nadal and Federer, 30-28 and 27-23.

Djokovic scored his first major victory at the Australian Open in 2008, but it took three years for him to add a second.

He removed gluten from his diet, his slender body allowing him to get rid of the lost causes.

After leading Serbia to the first Davis Cup in 2010, he raced during the first half of 2011, winning 48-1.

Only one defeat in the finals at the French Open prevented him from catching a Grand Slam on the calendar. However, he finished 2011 with a 70-6 loss, 10 championship wins and a first-place finish at the end of the year.

They followed the Australian Open in 2012 and 2013, although the French Open was out of reach until the 2016 breakthrough.

Last year, he won 11 titles and set a record loss of 82-6.

He has a total of nine Australian Open, six Wimbledon, three US Open titles and two French Open.

The Spaniard, who beat Nadali in an epic semi-final at the French Open last year, lost third in 108 games.

Djokovic has been in charge of two of them.

He added the 2021 Wimbledon title to his cap, but lost more than 50 years after completing a Grand Slam on the calendar with a defeat in the U.S. Open final.
