A loss of motivation isn't the fault of the coach, Djokovic has basically dominated the mid/latter of 2014/2015 and up to the French Open of 2016.

Djokovic is in a position he's never been in, he's done it all.

I wouldn't call it a bad year. He finally won Roland Garros, and besides the season with 2 GS can't be bad.

Think Djokovic has got a bit rankled that everyone says he won the FO after the nadal decline. We think that's irrelevant but lots of people have said that and djokovixnfhebtype of guy who would pay attention to such nonsense

What's the point of getting rankled about the facts?
 
The partnership may have run it's course, but he has gone from 6 to 12 Slams, and to a tier 1 great.
I never really did see Boris as a coach per se, more as an adviser, so a fresh approach may be a good thing.

T1? Thats like the guy who has 25 players in his top 10.

Id hate to see boris fired or let go, i hate when the player blames the coach instead of themself

Djokovic definitely needs to change something since things are going off course at the moment, but I dont think it is the coach. He needs to get hungry again. Looking at him play against Del Potro at the Olympics, Wawrinka at the Open, Fish at Wimbledon, I saw the same thing, he is missing the internal drive of a beast to win he usually has. He needs to get that back and I think there is a good chance he will, but I dont think a coaching change will solve anything.

Wawrinka ? Not the first time he lost to Wawrinka in a major.
 
DerekNoleFam1 said:
Yes but there was no plan b against Stanimal, he and Becker did not learn from 2015 RG, despite his injury and form concerns.

What does all that mean ? Wawrinka was too good for Djokovic anytime he beat him. Forget about injuries, form or plan B etc. there are no excuses. When you get to a major final you must be in form. Djokovic got his arse handed to him in both the FO and USO finals, end of story.
 
Boris is not averse to burning a bridge or two. And he will gladly prostitute others to sell books. Have he and his current employer signed a non-disclosure agreement?
 
On one hand Becker wants the money, on the other hand he knows that shows is soon to be run by

Becker will have no trouble finding somewhere else to go. He has a proven track record as a coach now. Plus he is a tennis great.
 
Aren't people overreacting a bit to this speculation?

It's not that a big deal when a player splits with his coach. Most of the time, it's merely a matter of both parties realizing that the collaboration has run its course, nothing more to 'learn', and well thanks a lot for the great results, with no bad feelings mutually. It. Happens.

And in this particular case, it's merely speculation, neither party has actually said anything substantially for this matter. Wait and see what will happen.

Do realize that 'blaming-the-coach' (even when it concerns a d*ck like Becker) for results not matching some fan's expectations, is rather lame... :rolleyes:

I dont doubt that, but not for 50k a week tho.
That kind of money only 1 or 2 players can cash out.
He will probably not even get half of that for his next gig.

Not really, tennis is all about being number one, or potential number one.
So its a pretty big deal in tennis.
Very few care about the rest.
If number 7 spilts with the coach , very few will know if anyone.
 
Becker is gonna be traumatized if he ends up being squeezed out by a love guru hippie that only got to 140 something in the rankings career high.

Does he seriously get paid 200k per month?? Thats more than a million a month if u count the number of weeks he accompanies Novak. Damn. Even for a celebrity coach this is insane

Already is, but not only him.
The guy is trolling the whole Atp.

Fine with me actually…I hope Pepe mellows Novak out to the point where his only concern is watching Bob Ross re-runs on tv and eating cheetos. I'd love to see some new blood in the finals of slams for once.

Yes 50k per week.
Lendl gets 25k per week.
And after that its going down pretty fast.
1-1,5 k euro per week is normal range for coach of top 100 atp player.

I doubt that very much. He probably get's a percentage of the winnings and appearance fees + travelling, hotel expenses. He wasn't earning that much as a pro.

What you see in their carrier price money is just part of their income.
High caliber players get appearance money which is not included in their stats.
Federer won 8 mill dollars in 2015 from tournament price money and 68 mill in total.
www.forbes.com/.../federer-heads-the-worlds-highest-paid-tennis...
- Federer banked $67.8 million between June 2015 and June 2016

BB probably lost 70,80 to 100 mill on divorces and high life.
He was earning insane money.
 
joekapa said:
That's why I am saying, from what I have read online, they get around 15% of money won, plus appearance fees.
Click to expand...

If BB gets only 15% from the price money without any fix salary that would be 2,1 mill dollars per year.
Since Djokovic made 14 mill this year.
That is 40k per week.
And that is only from Novaks base tournament price money , no appearance fees as you mentioned, no fix salary( in case of injury) and no bonuses.
So you can see fix 50k per week is very realistic assessment isnt it.
My point is you cant get this info online so why would you believe me anyway unless it makes sense.
I can say i know Djokovic personally but you would believe that even less right.
I cant prove it , its just common sense.

I can say i know Djokovic personally or i can say i know guys in his team which is very large btw, but you would believe that even less right.
I cant prove it , its just common sense if you think about it.

That guy above argued im wrong and then he writes his estimate 40k per week thats just 20% less then mine.
Whats yours estimate then.
