Djokovic looking skinnier than ever!

I thought he used to be listed at 176 or so[/B]. The ATP certainly updates weights for some players, like Kokinakkis and Thiem.

It's harder for me to believe that someone like Sascha Zverev weighs more than Andy Murray. I don't know though, ask Brad Gilbert. He's always obsessing over that kind of stuff.

I'm pretty sure he was now that I think more about it. 176 sounds about right actually.

yes, Djokovic used to be listed at 80 kg = 176 pounds for most of his career – and it's still what google automatically tells me – so they've indeed adjusted his listed weight. That said, most of the ATP stats are useless. There's no way at all Fed is heavier than Murray for instance. As for Noél, he's not morbidly thin or anything, so let's not get ahead of ourselves, but he surely has less mass by now than he optimally should. Most of all a certain amount of muscle is just good for injury prevention, and the way he looks now you'll wonder if he'll both be a bit less explosive and a bit less endurant.

Purportedly some players, upon seeing him in Melbourne ahead of the tourney, thought he was lacking his usual muscle tone as well. Might be true as Becker claimed that he hasn't really put in the necessary work. Skill level is still obviously there, but one thinks you can't stay top dawg if you're not putting in 100%.

Saving his work for DCGS? :eek:

He looks about 160 pounds, top.

He looked about 10 pounds bigger in the past.

Murray has the best build in tennis with wide shoulders, strong arms and legs and bubble butt.

If Novak keeps losing weight he will need to change to a 2 handed forehand !!!! That shot worked wonders for Pancho Segura so why not.

Some women are attracted to the "brittle and scrawny look" so maybe that is it.

most girls do like the slim muscular look but more like c. ronaldo. Djok is a little too thin lately

So you think he's underselling his own height?

I really don't know. If he's really the height he quoted I wonder why he's never bothered to correct the website? :confused:

That's because Djok is closer to 6'1.5. He was listed at 187 cm on his own site for years.

It's easier for me to tell these guy's heights because I'm 6'1.

Maybe if they're really in between inches/cms, the website just rounds up to the nearest whole number? ;)

I think it's user submitted from years ago, maybe hee just listed his height in shoes when he was 19 or something. Anyway at 6'2, Murray is about as big as you'd wanna be anyway, without sacrificing movement

Djok looks terrible, I don't know why anyone is bothering to minimize it at this point. Pepe probably has him on a crazy fad diet (vegan++)?

'You can't be too skinny, you can't have too low body fat,' Navratilova told Jon Wertheim. 'You need that body fat when you head in a long match. It seems he has no reserve.'

I recommend a soft sitting cushion and some rest in a prone position whenever possible. The pain will eventually subside.
As for AO breadstick I guess you enjoyed in 2016 , I posted it for you in case that you've forgotten

Okay.

I'm literally fine with those losses - just as I'm sure Jordan fans are okay that he didn't win more too.
Fed was in lousy shape and Novak was at his very best in both of those. All they tell us is that Djokovic is an incredible player, and that Federer is human.
Both of those things I admit freely.

Can you admit the reverse?

Pepe's doing, perhaps?
I've always thought Novak himself has his head screwed on pretty well. We can all have our bad patches, though.

He earned it and he also has a huge place in MIami too.
