Athletistic/Tennis. 18-time Grand Slam champion and former world number one Martina Navratilova has shared her thoughts on Serbian Novak Djokovic’s future plans.

“He has achieved his main goal: winning Olympic gold. But now he is aiming for his 25th Grand Slam title, one more than Margaret Court. Time may catch up with him, or maybe it has already caught up with him, because in the last match he was not the one we are used to seeing. It all depends on how strong his desire is. If the fire in him is still burning, I will never tell him: ‘You should retire.’ He will not waste his legacy – it is too great.”

His wife has probably already said to him: “Maybe it’s time to end my career. How many more do you need?” He might want to win another title, but if he wins the Australian Open, he probably wants to play both Roland Garros and Wimbledon. He’s not going to stop like that. It’s his decision. Either way, you can’t blame him because he’s had a fantastic career. I probably would have retired by now, but if he loves to play, why not? — Navratilova quotes We love tennis.
