I think if you do not enjoy your time, your life, if you do not live intensely and do not spend time with your family, in one way or another it will be reflected in your career.

The confidence is there, the game is there, but physically you can't fight nature sometimes. You can't do much about it.
Novak Djokovic
Image
My success has a lot to do with my private life. I've matured a lot by first becoming a husband and now a father. My life is in the right direction. And that helps a player to thrive. One thing is linked with the other. My private life has helped me.
Novak Djokovic
Image
I know that success does not come at once, it is not a thing achieved overnight. It is the result of many, many, many years of working and trying to achieve goals.
Novak Djokovic
Image
I had a nice childhood. War and all the experiences affected me as a person and helped me to grow, to change.
Novak Djokovic
Image
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.

I've had my ups and downs in my private life.

Nadal's the best player in history on [clay], and he is one of the best-ever players that played this game.

Mangling my racket and an odd swearword on the court is not something I am proud of and it shouldn't happen, but even my coaches have told me that it's sometimes better to let it all out, the anger inside you, because keeping it bottled would just eat you up in the long term.

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.
Novak Djokovic
Image
My father believed in me many times more than I believed in myself.
Novak Djokovic
Image
We spent all day travelling, living away from the people you love, not sleep in our own bed ... We are far from our own houses. We live in hotels, clubs. And now that I am a father it is much more difficult.
Novak Djokovic
Image
I'm trying to enjoy my lie as much as I can and I know that tennis hopefully is going to be my life the next 10, 15 years.

Imagine a part of the U.S.A., from which the U.S.A. started - where is the cradle of your history? This is Kosovo for Serbia.
Novak Djokovic
Image
I never wanted to change countries it's something that is part of me.

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.

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

Image
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
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.

When the last point is done, we are humans. Give your opponent a hug and say, ‘great fight,’ and that’s all.
