Novak Djokovic, swipe at Jannik Sinner and other colleagues
Novak Djokovic gave many interesting answers at the press conference: “I know that many colleagues are totally against this system, but when it comes time to spend time and energy in meetings and gatherings, they don”.
And again: “We cannot talk enough about all the players in the world who live because of the sport. It is important that we understand that we live in a sports world that has become commercial and aimed at entertainment”.
Chapter Masters 1000 over two weeks: “To tell you the truth, for me with this formula they are too long. I don’t like them. In Cincinnati I did not want to play because I wanted to spend more time with my family. I think I have earned the right to be able to choose where to go and what tournaments to play”.
“I know many of them are opposing this lengthening of the Masters 1000. I support them, but at the end of the day the players have to stay active-there is always a time when you can negotiate and decide something with the organization. And these tennis players, particularly the top players, do not participate enough”.
“I know many people express their feelings against this system, but when it comes time to put time and energy into meetings and gatherings, they don’t. I realize it is difficult, believe me, I was often there, but we are not just doing it for us, but it is necessary for future generations. We have to contribute in the right direction. But I don”t know, hopefully something will change in the future” concluded the’former world number 1.
