Tennis TV published a video-game-inspired animation that shows Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, and Roger Federer competing in the race to the most Grand Slams. The animation shows how Novak has the slowest start but the top speed in conquering Grand Slams.
Here are Djokovic’s words after he won the race: “Obviously, Grand Slam is a Grand Slam.
Four biggest tournaments that we have in the history of our sports and every single player dreams of being in this stage and winning the trophy at least once in their career. I am beyond fortunate in my life to win 23 times Grand Slams.
It’s an incredible incredible feeling,” Djokovic said. “It’s not a coincidence that I’ve won 23rd Grand Slam title in Paris because this tournament is very much the hardest tournament to win for me all my career. Lots of reasons, on court and off court.
And I have to say that I am very proud and happy to be here on this very special court.”
Djokovic’s race is not over
36-year-old Novak Djokovic has won the first two Grand Slams of the 2023 season, the Australian Open and Roland Garros, and he is set to win more.
“Of course [the] journey is still not over. I feel, you know, if I’m winning slams, why even think about, you know, ending the career that already has been going on for 20 years. So I still feel motivated, I still feel inspired to play the best tennis on these tournaments the most, you know, Grand Slams. Those are the ones that count I guess the most in history of our sport,” Djokovic said.
