    Why is he portrayed as a villain by the media, I will never understand. I have always admired him, but in recent years, I have really grown to respect Novak. Always in awe of what he has achieved despite having so little in his favour for pretty much his entire formative years. In my opinion, he is the greatest athlete of all time.

      He was a danger to the media personas of Roger and Rafa, to all their lucrative sponsorships and well manicured appearances across the public sphere. He was a disruptive element. And he still is. A simple poor kid that came from nothing was never supposed to be the face of a "gentleman's" sport. I guess no one informed them that Serbians have something called "INAT" imprinted in our genes. Now he is the GOAT of tennis and so much more off court.

      The reason is that it's politics that's why he is a villain. Big time politics. Had he accepted the British citizenship, he would have been the dearest hero. The fact that he overcame all that and became GOAT is one of the overlooked testaments to his greatness aside form results.

His family had a seasonal pancake shop in the mountains of Serbia, hardly a job that could feed a family of five. I am one year older than Novak and I am from Serbia. I grew up in the same conditions. It's difficult to grasp sanctions and extreme inflation if you didn't live through it. During those years, one decent pair of tennis shoes were worth my mother's yearly salary. My mother is a doctor btw, just to put things into perspective.

    I have followed Novak for over a decade, and read and watched as much as I could about not only his tennis but his life and views. His tennis is sublime. His level of self-expression and depth of self-searching is truly extraordinary. "My greatest achievement is an open mind." This interview is a gift to a true fan like me, particularly about the impact of the war and bombing on him as a boy, his family, the country. "I'm at my best when I understand that the power comes from within... vulnerability is a beautiful thing to show...." What he says about his kids and relationship with Jelena ... beautiful! And about the education of children and of their parents... Thank you, Graham, for this remarkable interview.

      Agree. Unfortunatly I didnt grew up with propare parents care. And sometimes I am very insecure about my feelings and self worth. But using that same metologie you can realy grow as a person. Its wonderful to show your vulnerability...it means that you want more in a good way. Open mind is really the top level that you can reach. But as with everything you have to work on it every day, learning how to manage it.
      What I want to say is that Novak is my confirmation that I am doing things in a good way, even if it is realy hard sometimes. But the power comes from within.
      Also we are the same mentality, and big thanks to him that he is showing the world what we are capeable of. Big support from Croatia. Podrška Nole.

      @@tonybenn1000 Depends on how many 'roids Nadal was allowed to smuggle into Australia -- it's never clear. He takes private doctors with him to the U.S., he says, because the U.S. doctors won't give him injections during matches. Poor Nadal. He told the media not to ask him how many injections he got during the French Open, but he made it clear he gets boinks before during and after matches. I have no idea how he can make it up to Zerev, but amazing players are going to get seriously injured if they're playing against diltoids who have pre-emptively numbed their bodies from feeling pain. Be snarky all you want, but when you start caring about stuff enough to feel for what's 'real', you won't be wondering where Nadal is or what he's doing. [More than 75% of docs include steroids w/the painkillers Nadal uses -- there're non-particulate steroids that don't show up in tests. I trust Nadal as much as I trust you, lol.

    Djokovic is my favourite tennis player by far, because he is simply a superb tennis player - unsurpassable, in my opinion. And I also like his personality, generosity, humour (especially his impersonations LOL) and thoughtfulness. There's a philosopher deep in him somewhere, he's one of the few tennis players that I would love to have a deep conversation with, about life, the universe and everything - I know I wouldn't be bored to death after 5 minutes!
    But I also support him because he's a bit of an underdog. Yes, he is No.1, the best player ever probably, but when he plays, it feels as if the whole world are against him:- The commentators making snide remarks, ignoring his brilliant shots. The media picking faults and spinning stories to put him in the negative light, whipping up various groups against him, e.g. he's anti-feminist, he's an antivaxer, he'll never be as "popular" as Federer, etc. The on court audience cheering for his opponent (which is OK if they support the other player, but most of the time, they are just cheering against him), behaving like mobs who are ready to lynch him, some people in the crowd even do their best to disrupt his play - (I wonder who organises that? It's unlikely to be simply whipped up by the media! The politicians (Australia) imprison him after giving him all the official documents to enter the country, they use special ministerial powers reserved for terrorists, where natural justice doesn't apply, so that he cannot defend his position in law. The tournaments apply different rules to him than are normally applied (his disqualification from the US Open). The public who don't follow tennis closely, buy in to this discrimination. And yet, despite all this, he comes through it, still king and generous, still fair and just, and still the greatest tennis player ever.
    But when we look into it, it isn't really the whole world against him, it's just the so called Western world. He's loved and supported across all other countries, people turn out to meet him at airports, wave his flag, wear his T-shirt from Brazil to China, even to some extent in Japan. A few years ago I was following the Shanghai Masters - and there were tweets as the players arrived at the airport - pictures of famous players at the airport carrying their luggage, being met by the tournament director, with no one else in sight playing the slightest bit of attention. But the tweet of Djokovic's arrival showed huge crowds lining up the exit from the Customs zone, posters, placcards and flags everywhere, smiling faces pushing their notebooks and tennis balls in hope of an autograph! And that's where I realised that the antipathy towards Djokovic is reserved for him exclusively in UK, US, EU, Australia, i.e. the English speaking world. The antipathy, even hatred, are deliberate policies of these countries - WHY? I'm ashamed of the behaviour of Wimbledon crowds, they never used to behave like that.
    The media keep telling us that Djokovic is "unloved", and that he craves that more than anything. What utter rubbish! I don't think I've ever seen a player more loved than Djokovic - when he won Wimbledon this year, he flew to Serbia, and huge crowds came out for him, at the airport, in Belgrade main square, they cheered and partied with him for hours and hours. He's the only player who receives the same kind of love that the English Football team received when they won the World Cup in 1966! He is more loved than any other player!
    Yes, he likes it, of course he does, but he's actually quite a private person, I expect he would be embarrassed if us Brits came out flag-waving for him at Heathrow next time he plays Wimbledon - after the treatment he's had from British press, he would know it wasn't genuine.

    Up until RG 2021, I was never a big fan of Novak. I was your average Fedal fanboy. But when he won RG21, and became the first player to have 2 GSs on each tournament, coupled with his two-time Golden Masters, I just had to admit he was one of the GoaTs, maybe even the GoaT.
    After AO22, where he didn't give out to the blackmail, bullying, guilt-tripping and social-shaming, and held true to his principles, he won me 100% for good.
    Novak is the GoaT, the champion, and the people's champion. I, as an unvaccinated against covid individual, felt first hand the discrimination, ridicule and bullying tactics of the government (and even of many people blindly following everything... many of whom even doubled down on the scape-goating...). I know how it feels to go to a bar, sit, and be shown the door just because I refuse to share my personal medical history with people. Frankly, I felt like a dog... I still cannot believe how 90% of people went with every disgusting tactic the government used to make sure everyone is vaccinated with a vaccine developed in mere months, by a company which has paid fines in the millions in the not so distant past. You know that when you're criminalized, ostracized, guilt-tripped, socially-shamed, ridiculed, caricatured and bullied into putting something in your body that does NOT stop transmission of the virus, you know then that something is very, very wrong.
    Thank you Novak for staying true to your principles, even if for you it means losing money and trophies/history. You're a hero for the people. I wish you many more titles and Grand Slams to come.

However, since corona madness, it has become obvious and it seems to me that the West is sinking more and more into totalitarianism. I'm not sure what an individual can do, except not to participate in the mass hysteria. Greetings from Republic of Srpska, BiH !

      I agree wholeheartedly with you. Never liked him. Couldn’t argue with his skill on the court. I am a Roger fan! But since he stood his ground about the shots, I immediately respected him like never before. I, too, am unvaccinated and have suffered greatly for standing my ground. Friends and family wouldn’t be around me or my daughter. He is a true champ on the court, though I will always love Roger’s play first, and will cheer him on when he returns to a court to compete.

      @@vladomachar6365 That's not entirely true. In Hungary for example most media is connected to Orban and his circle. What is different is the PEOPLE themselves. They have learnt to smell bullshit from a mile away. Media everywhere in the world is in the hands of few people and work for powerful and monied interests, the difference is literally the gut feeling people have developed. Furtheron the people in the west have been exposed to the most powerful and well financed media for so long and have mostly been on the "winning" side. They dictated most news globally. It's far easier to believe you are the good guy or you own the patent on truth this way. The illusion is easier to maintain under these circumstances. It's only recently that trouble hit home for them, too. Now there's fractures. Fake news is the mot du jour. The USA is fighting a containment war for its hegemony right now. So they censor and overstep far more now. They wanna clamp down as much as possible. It will backfire, I'm sure.
      Lets see how things pan out. Media literacy is vital for common people. Read from different sources and understand the interests behind the media. Then try to work out what's going on the best you can from all the different information you gathered.

    Well hell…I guess I owe this guy an apology! I’m guilty of believing a few negative stories I’ve read about Novak. But I guess this interview and my appreciation of the dedication and commitment to the game…has changed my mind. His goals and his approach are worthy of significant recognition and admiration! He comes across very humble and kind! And the WC quote was one I had not heard. I’m sorry for judging you Novak! It’s my mistake and was very undeserving towards you. Your accomplishments are incredibly notable and you seem very grounded. Your wife and family are beautiful and you seem to be very generous. I should have watched this before commenting about you. I actually just stumbled on it today…and now have a very different view of you and your epic career! Keep up the hard work and devotion to the game and your family! You spoke of forgiveness… I deleted any and all negative comments I’ve ever posted about you…and if you or your family ever read any of them…I hope I can be forgiven. Gary Brent Mason
