Roddick is not positive how for much longer Djokovic will proceed taking part in - not less than on the highest degree - though the Serbian did joke after the US Open he may preserve going for an additional 24 years. But Djokovic retains himself in wonderful situation, and Roddick thinks he is the very best athlete on the planet, not simply tennis.

"It will come down to the matrix between what his motivation is and what his body’s telling him," Roddick mentioned about Djokovic's eventual retirement. "You never take health for granted, especially towards the end of your career, but, if motivated, his body looks like it would be fine to keep going for a couple more years.

"It’s not even near hyperbolic to say that he’s the very best athlete on earth proper now." Djokovic wants only one extra Grand Slam win to change into the main champion in main titles. His most profitable match is the Australian Open, the primary main of the 2024 calendar.
