Novak Djokovic: “Either I evolve or it’s over.”

Novak Djokovic speaks ahead of Tel Aviv tournament

Novak Djokovic starts again in Israel: the Serbian tennis player in a press conference ahead of the Atp tournament in Tel Aviv spoke about his physical condition, which is inevitably affected after the abnormal 2022 he is going through. “I’ve missed two Slams this year because of some circumstances that did not allow me to travel. It was not easy in all respects, more emotionally than physically. Fortunately, my physique has benefited from the breaks, I’ve been able to stay in shape, but the disadvantage of not playing is that you don’t have the drive of the competition, you don’t have the feeling of the match.”

“There is no key to staying fit for a long time, it’s a combination of elements that are part of your character, your ecosystem, how you grew up and how you train. I have tried to constantly innovate and evolve, because I don’t believe in stagnation: regress or progress, so I always try to be on the side of progression. I have to find new ways to keep my game at the top and be in grateful to compete with young, strong players.”
