- Djokovic wins Olympic gold
- Representing Serbia is an experience above all else
- His participation in the next Olympics is not out of the question
Money, fame and months spent at the top of the ATP rankings are one thing. And winning an Olympic gold medal for your country is another.
Novak Djokovic recognized this and understood it very quickly. After his Olympic gold medal triumph, the Belgrade native was beaming with satisfaction and relaxed like rarely before.
In this atmosphere, the thirty-seven-year-old tennis player was unusually open and also optimistic about his sporting future. What did the legend of the sport say?
Djokovic and his intentions
During this year, he has looked all sorts of things. Compared to previous seasons, Djokovic waited an unusually long time for a tournament title.
But it’s worth it. You don’t win a tournament under the Olympic rings more than once every four years. And that’s the time it will take for the next Olympics to be held in Los Angeles.
And contrary to initial predictions, it’s not impossible that a recent gold medalist will be there. “I still want to play in Los Angeles,” said the Serbian tennis player.
The age of the phenomenal tennis player does not change this intention. Djokovic will be 41 by the time the next Olympics are held.
The desire to play a match of such importance and also the unrepeatable feeling of representing his country. These are the main attributes that give even such an experienced player new motivation to continue his career.
Montreal without the Serb
The ATP tour moves to North America. And it’s going to start off pretty rough. The Masters in Montreal starts this week.
Few of tennis’ elite will be missing. But Djokovic will not be seen in Canada. So will Olympic silver medallist Alcaraz.
Qualifying is already underway at the tournament. Jakub Mensik is just one step away from success . After postponing most of yesterday’s programme, he will have to do it today.
Djokovic’s short-term plans are clear. To prepare well for the US Open. The last grand slam of the season starts on August 26th.
