Novak Djokovic’s announcement leaves breathless, the Serbian tennis player really believes it and fans are ecstatic: here’s what he hopes to do
Novak Djokovic with winning the gold medal at the Paris 2028 Olympic Games has completed his special palmarès. All he needed was that success to stand as a winning legend in all the major tournaments he has participated in. Serbia’s commitments often caused him disappointments. Anxiety, the tension of representing one’s country can play tricks on you.
It happened in the Olympics tournaments of past years, with a joy in 2008 when the bronze medal came. But that time is over. The victory over Alcaraz in the final was described by fans and insiders as the best in Olympic history. At least the most hard-fought, with tears of sadness for the Spaniard and tears of joy for Nole moving the audience.
It is still unclear when the Serbian tennis player will retire, but the latest announcement gives a strong indication of ideas for the present and future of Djokovic, a class of ’87 who still has so much to give to the tennis world. The next goal will be to be at peak form for the US Open.
Djokovic wants Los Angeles Olympics 2028
But Djokovic is also looking to the future and even told his fans that he wants to participate in the Los Angeles Olympics 2028: “I’m going to try to get all the way to Los Angeles, I would really like to. Representing the colors of Serbia at the Olympics is the biggest thrill, I fulfilled a childhood dream. The pressure in Paris was huge, because I had won everything. Now I feel complete and accomplished, we can celebrate. “
Djokovic will be 41 years old in 2028, which is why his statements caused a bit of a stir. Much will depend on his physical fitness; the injuries of the last few months would have felled anyone. Between Nole, who recovered in the blink of an eye and decided to be present in Paris and win the gold medal.
For now, the mind is on the present; Djokovic is not on the Cincinnati roster to defend last year’s title. He will have to choose the tournaments to participate in a little more carefully. The main goal is to do well at the US Open, winning the 25th career Slam would be a splendid achievement and he would go to +3 on Nadal in the all-time rankings and +5 on Federer.
