The tradition in Serbia has always been team sports - football, basketball, handball, volleyball and water polo, individual sports are not supported.

My priority, the most important thing in my life is my family, my wife and my son.
Novak Djokovic
Image
Well, I do feel that I carry the responsibility of representing my country wherever I am, and this responsibility came with the success that I had in last couple of years, not just myself but the whole group of tennis players that comes from Serbia. And athletes in general are, in this moment, the biggest ambassadors that our country has.

I'm a happy man, because I am successful in what I do, of course but what makes me most happy is I have people around me that I love and who love me back. This, for me, is the most important thing. Nobody likes to be alone.

I always try to adjust to the situation.

Even though now I'm pretty popular in my country and tennis is the No. 1 sport, and I'm very flattered that the people recognise me and come up and give me compliments, I'm more a person who likes to have privacy and peace.
Novak Djokovic

It is very important and my success very much depends on the harmony that I feel in my private life. It is essential for me to be happy in my private life. And if it continues, I am able to continue playing tennis.

The fact that nobody played tennis in my family and you'd say by chance they make three tennis courts in front of the restaurant that my family owned when I was 4, I think that's a destiny. That's kind of life circumstances that kind of come together for you to become who you want to become.

It is my goal to win every time I play. But on the other hand, I also seek a balance of compassion and respect for the other players. I understand that everyone goes through difficult times, either mentally or physically, to cope with their life, to live the sport.

I had a unique privilege to have a good start in life and a chance to develop my talents.
Novak Djokovic

In terms of playing ability there is nothing to choose between number one and 100. Instead, it's a question of who believes and who wants it more? Which player is mentally stronger? Which player is going to fight the hardest in the big points? These are the things that determine who is the champion.

It gives me goose bumps and little butterflies in the stomach when I start thinking about the 'golden slam.'
Novak Djokovic
Image
I love being around people who care about me, and I care about them.

Nothing, nothing, nothing is better than sex, it is what God created us to do.

Tennis players we're always playing in center courts that feel like arenas. And when we get on the court and the crowd cheers your name or salutes you - it's like you're a gladiator in the arena. And everyone is cheering - and you're fighting, you're screaming, during your strokes - it feels like you're an animal, fighting for your life.

Building a solid foundation in the early years of a child's life will not only help him or her reach their full potential but will also result in better societies as a whole.

My father never talked about the sacrifices that the family made for me.

I want to win and I feel that pressure, but my career will not be a disaster if I do not win there. It is a dream to fulfill.
Novak Djokovic
Image
I don't think there has been enough communication between the players and the tournaments. In one sense it's just as much the players' fault. Players talk between each other and in the locker room about things that can be improved and then when the time comes to talk and really do something about it they stop.

It has been the best thing that has ever happened in my life.
