Novak Djokovic is looking toward Serena Williams as he pursues a historic 25th Grand Slam title at Wimbledon. Williams, 44, is set to make her return to singles play after a four-year absence, facing Maya Joint in the opening round.
Djokovic, 39, expressed deep admiration for her commitment. He noted that seeing her work ethic in the gym has been influential as he navigates the later stages of his own career. With 23 major titles to her name, Williams is attempting this comeback for her daughters, an effort Djokovic described as truly epic.
The Serbian star believes the grass courts of Wimbledon provide him the best opportunity to secure another trophy. He explained that grass requires less intense physical movement compared to clay, which is advantageous as he manages his recovery following a challenging exit at the French Open. Despite his recent loss to Carlos Alcaraz in Australia, Djokovic is feeling better prepared for this event than he was for his previous tournament. Both athletes hold seven Wimbledon titles, and as Djokovic faces the reality of his own career timeline, he remains focused on adding to his record-breaking tally.
