Novak Djokovic has become the great absence in Turin during the 2024 ATP Finals. A few days before the start of the Masters Cup, the Balkan tennis player announced that he had to get off the ship of said tournament due to an injury.
It is the first time since 2017 that ‘Nole’ closes a season without winning a Grand Slam. Although his great success in 2024, which he surely would not change for any of the four major annual tournaments, has been the gold medal in the Olympic Games that you could see on Eurosport and Max. This recognition was the only thing that had eluded the Balkan throughout his victorious career.
What his performance will be like in the 2025 season remains up in the air. Some experts, such as Benoit Maylin, are confident that “Djokovic’s 2023 tends to be forgottenwinning three of the four Grand Slams and the ATP Finals.” Something that he uses to justify how it could be a grand return for the Serbian.
Djokovic knows that his time is running out, he will be 38 in May. And I bet you he will be very dangerous again in 2025. Until he wins his 25th Grand Slam? Yes. And why not a 26º?
“Djokovic knows that his time is running out, he will be 38 in May. And I bet you he will be very dangerous again in 2025. Until he wins his 25th Grand Slam? Yes. And why not a 26º?“, Maylin demonstrated in ‘Sans Net’.
Maylin emphasizes the importance that “there are not many favorites on the three surfaces”, giving as an example that only Alcaraz and Sinner could beat the Serbian tennis player in the Grand Slams of 2024.
