In a stunning revelation, Novak Djokovic seems to have shifted his priorities from being the best player in the rankings to focusing on playing in the Davis Cup. Despite his status as one of the greatest tennis players in history, Nole has made it clear that his current concentration lies in representing his country on the court.
Following his dominant victory against the 770th ranked player, Ioannis Wilas, where he only dropped one game in a 6-0, 6-1 win, Djokovic addressed the media about his future plans in tennis and Serbia’s position in the qualifying round of the Davis Cup.
When questioned about playing for the Serbian national team, Djokovic replied with conviction, stating, “Words are unnecessary, it is actions that speak. I think my commitment says it all. With the new format, I have fewer opportunities to play at home, the last time being seven years ago.”
However, in a surprising turn of events, Djokovic revealed that chasing the ATP Finals and maintaining his top ranking are no longer his main objectives. “I don’t know if I will play in the finals this year or next, but now what I need most is physical, mental, and emotional rest to decide what is right for me, what’s next in my career, how much more I want to play, and where,” he admitted.
It’s evident that Djokovic’s priorities have shifted, and only time will tell how this change will impact his future in the sport. Fans and critics alike are left wondering what the next chapter holds for the Serbian superstar.
