“I think what Novak did was incredible. Honestly, such an achievement this is a good thing for tennis, something great for the sport in general. It’s great when tennis writes its own history and keeps adding things like we’ve seen recently with Serena Williams, Rafa Nadal, me and now Novak Djokovic. It’s a great moment for tennis and for all the fans, but also for the players”, said the Swiss tennis player in the framework of the reopening of several tennis courts in Bostall Gardens.
Furthermore, he highlighted the success achieved by the Serb and said: “I remember when I came to the tour that pete sampras he had 14 Grand Slams, most of us thought that record would stand forever. Then 15, then 17, until I pushed myself to 20. Then Rafa pushed to 22 and now with Novak it’s 23. It looks like it will continue for a while, which is great, I wish you all the best in what is to come”.
“The way everything is happening is incredible, Novak is no longer the youngest in the locker room, something many have forgotten.. He looks like a kid and he does everything the way a young man would do, but it’s not easy, his last victory seems incredible to me.. I couldn’t be happier after seeing this,” he admitted.
