Novak’s victory in the Wimbledon Gentlemen’s singles final and his seventh Grand Slam title means that he also reclaims his no. 1 spot in the ATP. Federer claims the match is dramatic.

You know going into a match with Novak, it’s always going to be tough. It had everything for fans to like, the swing of momentum in the first set, him coming back in the second and third, all the back and forth in the fourth set and all the dramas in the fifth.

Novak Djokovic interview

Interview0 Comments

Djokovic talks about his recent Wimbledon championship. He also shares how he’s handling fame in his home country of Serbia, his brief modeling stint and some of the crazy gigs that his agent puts him up to.

It was a commercial that I have done for my racquet brand that’s representing me, and so they called me and they told me it was going to be crazy, something that nobody has ever done before, but I didn’t assume that it was going to be that crazy. So the guy goes, “Well, we have this 1954 plane right here, and you’re going to play some tennis on the wings.”
