According to the Sporskeeda website, the tennis number had a strong argument with the Croatian coach, after the Serb had a terrible training session during the Indian Wells conflict. This is just the result of the changes he is making to his team.
Last week, important news shook the tennis world. After five years of relationship, the number one tennis player on the planet Novak Djokovic has decided to fire his coach Croatian Goran Ivanisevic .
The Serbian is having an irregular start to the season. Yes OK reached the semi-final of the Australian Open , The sensations were not the best. The surprising defeat against the world number 123 in the second round of Indian Wells aggravated the crisis which ended with the departure of the former tennis player from Split.
The Sportskeeda site, which cites sources close to the world number one, specifies that The bomb would have exploded in Indian Wells, while Djokovic and Ivanisevic had a heated argument .
The reason is almost incredible, particularly because of the professionalism of the Serbian. According to the website, owner of 24 Grand Slam titles, During his Californian days, he trained little, poorly and reluctantly. A situation which infuriated the Croatian coach, who did not hesitate to face it. .
Time for change
But the departure of coach This is one more move that Nole has decided for this season. He seems to have been unhappy with his team’s work for some time.
In fact, after careful assessment, he didn’t hide it either. For months, during matches, the Balkan player had been speaking furiously to his staff, insulting his corner repeatedly.
Situation which reached its climax in Australian Open when frustrated tennis player shouted ‘I’m firing you all’ . It is not a matter a sentence that was said randomly. The world number one truly changes his entire team, from his representative Dodo Artaldi .
It is more, Ivanisevic himself had repeatedly stated at a press conference that Djokovic sometimes exaggerated with them during the matches, but he justified it by the fact that this anger gave him energy on the field . Later, according to the now ex-coach, he apologized to everyone, regretting these behaviors. Of course, this time things were different.
According to Sportskeeda, Nole’s ideas for planning for 2024 also cause a greater gap between player and coach. The big goal this season is Olympic gold, the only thing missing from his endless list of successes.
It will be played in Paris, on the courts of Roland Garros. To achieve this goal there would be the idea of skipping Wimbledon, a tournament he has won seven times, to save energy and not have to go from grass to dirt in such a short time, since the Olympic tournament will only last a few days after the end of the English tournament. . A thought that Ivanisevic strongly disagreed with .
A difficult moment for Djokovic, who is now forced to look for another coach, but the idea of doing everything himself seems to be germinating in the Serb’s head. Alone, without having to listen to anyone .
