Novak Djokovic, one of the most recognized tennis players in history, although this was not always the case. His history in the world of tennis began in Serbia, and his almost automatic rise from humble beginnings is a testament to his dedication, talent and determination.
Established as the greatest Grand Slam winner in the history of sport, Novak Djokovic, confessed what his beginnings were like in the sport. And he also mentioned comparisons with two of the members of the so-called Big Four, Roger Federer, and Rafael Nadal.
In these statements, the tennis player expressed that although he is currently considered one of the best athletes in history, at the beginning of his career it was difficult for him to adapt to dealing with people and discrimination.
For its part, the Djokovic family made multiple sacrifices to support the athlete’s tennis career. Despite the financial difficulties that the family presented, his parents worked tirelessly to provide him with the best opportunities to develop his talent.
- “There was no room for everyone. In all the most famous sports rivalries it is always two people, not three. So I understand that that is probably one of the reasons why I was left out,” Djokovic said.
- “When I was young I said I wanted to beat them and be number one and a lot of people didn’t like it, including them, so they kept me out and judged me. Some will say: ‘I like his confidence’, but others will think: ‘look at this arrogant jerk,’ Novak Djokovic continued, regarding his ambitions.
- “At the beginning of my career I tried to be more connected with people, but I also understood that there are several factors why I will not receive support. “So I asked myself: do I keep trying to win over people or do I accept it and move forward being authentically me?” explained the current tennis champion.
Novak Djokovic’s journey from the modest courts of Serbia to becoming one of the best tennis players in the world is a great reminder to all sports lovers that greatness has no specific origin.
