At least according to the world rankings, Novak Djokovic, the reigning Australian champion is admittedly the best tennis player in the world, but it is also difficult to crown him a 'favorite round' guy in the face of criticism of his statements and controversial behavior.
Another contributor to the lack of affection is Novak's father, Sergeant Djokovic, who often complains about his deprivation of his son in the world media.
In an interview tonight (Wednesday) in Serbia, the proud father explained that his son is expected to soon win three more Grand Slam titles, which will make him the all-time world record holder.
"Novak will very soon overtake Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, who hold 20 Grand Slam titles. It will happen within a year, a maximum of a year and a half. No more. It will not be possible to match him."
"When my son retires, he will be equally successful outside of tennis. Whatever he touches," the father promised, "everyone now understands that there is no way to stop him. You have tortured yourself for 10 years. And now the whole Western media is adding another year to its suffering, instead. "Come to terms with the fact that Novak is the best in the world. You just can't beat him."
Serjan Djokovic went on to slap Serbian journalists: "Why don't you praise and celebrate with him his great victories. Why just look for the dirt? Have you ever wondered when you will have another miracle like Novak? It's something disposable. My son is a gift From God. "
"Everyone in the world loves him," the angry father continued, "have you ever wondered why he plays best in China? He feels love there, true love, they really love him there. They love him there without hesitation, something he does not experience in the West. Nor will he ever experience it.
"Novak fights not only for himself, but for many players whose voices are not heard. He has such good manners. He always greets his opponents. The opponent even when he loses, he is the most polite. Who else behaves like that? And after all that, he barely got "Fairness award. Do you know how much Federer received? 15 fairness awards."
