World No.1 Novak Djokovic has been "slaughtered" by the media, likely due to his Balkan legacy, mentor Goran Ivanisevic has guaranteed in a touchy meeting.
Djokovic a month ago won his 10th Australian Open and eighteenth Grand Slam title in commonly emotional style. He was pummeled over elite of solicitations in the midst of player isolate lockdowns and the authenticity of a mid-competition stomach injury was addressed; events that he marked unreasonable and destructive.
Ivanisevic, the previous Wimbledon champion, said that Djokovic had conveyed an objective on his back since a year ago's Adria Tour; a tennis occasion facilitated by the Serbian hotshot that outrightly displayed biosecurity standards in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. He recommended that the analysis of Djokovic might be bigoted.
"Everything began with the Adria Tour; they were after him even before that, however in the most recent year it appeared to me as though I am watching that film The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. For what reason would he say he is being dealt with that way? Likely on account of his experience, individuals from Balkans are constantly taken a gander at in an unexpected way; likewise, Novak isn't hesitant to express his real thoughts and to battle for causes he puts stock in," Ivanisevic disclosed to Tennis Majors.
"What occurred at the US Open (where Djokovic was excluded for hitting a line judge in the throat with a ball), maybe everybody was happy on the grounds that that sort of s- - t happened to him. In Australia he defended his kindred players and again – how about we kick Djokovic in light of the fact that he is the simply one to shout out, every other person stays quiet. All through my vocation I have seen players doing a wide range of things, yet no one got the sort of treatment Novak does.
"At that point, the clincher … How will I put this? The most treacherous, really the saddest thing were allegations that he was faking a physical issue. Why for heaven's sake would he do that? For what reason would the best part on the planet make up a physical issue, and he was up two sets to cherish by then?! At the point when some other top player is harmed, it is viewed as a brave represent them to try and step on the court. Be that as it may, when it is Novak, he is faking it."
Ivanisevic marked Djokovic's Australian Open success "astonishing" and announced: "Novak is only more grounded than every other person and individuals struggle conceding that."
Djokovic has simply equalled Roger Federer's record of 310 weeks as men's reality No.1. He trails Federer and Rafael Nadal (20 Grand Slam titles) by two in the profession majors race.
Ivanisevic said that Djokovic breaking the No.1 weeks record was huge in the 'Best Of All Time' banter over the threesome. He is relying on Nadal to succeed at least one more French Open, implying that Djokovic should succeed at least 22 majors to end his profession as the inside and out record holder.
"Everything is significant among them. I mean – 311 weeks and that's just the beginning, it is interesting," Ivanisevic said disclosed to Tennis Majors.
"Novak has won all that he might have won and the finish of his vocation isn't yet in sight. The GOAT banter comes down to taste and inclinations, however in the event that you have the numbers on your side, it is difficult to deny a few things … For me, Novak is the awesome most complete player ever, for another person it is Nadal or Federer. It will be a fascinating subject to examine when their vocations are finished."
Djokovic would have to win 25 singles Slams to surpass the current generally speaking record holder (male or female), Australia's Margaret Court.
At age 33, he is more youthful than both Nadal (34) and Federer (39). He has likewise supported less harm to his body and would begin most loved once again the two men at each Grand Slam, except for Nadal at Roland Garros.
