Yes, I think he wants to peak for Wimbledon, but I am sure he wants a shot at any of the four slams now, as the window is almost closed for him and he will be looking for any chance he can get.
You think so? If he is still not 100% with his knee, I'm afraid he has himself to blame for keeping playing after the Olympics half-heartedly rather than calling it a season.

Still haven’t seen any news of Murray meeting up and coaching Djokovic in the off-season. He is not in Brisbane either.

‘Murray, who retired after this summer’s Olympics at the age of 37, made the shock decision to join Djokovic’s team in November and recently spent 10 days with the Serbian in preparation for the new season.

Although Murray is not with Djokovic for this week’s Brisbane International, the two-time Wimbledon champion will join him in Melbourne for training ahead of the Australian Open.’

Man. Where the heck was he on the island?! I'm just trying to think where he might have been. Granted, I was island hopping for a few days, as I went to Phi Phi island and a few others, like James Bond island. He must have been around the Thalang area, more inland. Crap, I could have seen him, I had hired out a motorbike and it is very easy to get around the whole island.
Now I know why Djokovic stayed in Amanpuri resort Phuket.

Djokovic is the new and first Global Wellness Advisor for Aman Resorts.

I love Aman Resorts. A lot of them have great architecture design. Plenty of them in Indonesia.

Watched Kyrgios & Djokovic practice before the current ongoing Doubles match. It was really awesome! Kyrgios won the first tiebreak 7-2 and then Djokovic won the next one 13-11.

Honestly didn't expect the recap/collages would be so much smaller compared to 2023 when he was merciless. But there were moments I enjoyed so much this year too.

Roland Garros had that special last stand feeling. Two five setters, two comebacks. Second one against Cerundolo, stunning match, 2 sets to 1 down and a break down, with an injured knee. His last matches as world number 1 were marathon victories, the kind of matches he is the best at.

Nicely timed, he kinda left the throne to the younger ones by stepping aside. And even decade and a half younger opponents have their times at the top of the rankings in the shades of vaccine mandates and clostebol use.

In pure numbers quantitatively he didn't do much at all. But two months after Roland Garros and a knee surgery, he returned to the same court and completed tennis once and for all.

Personally I never put much weight into that event. But seeing how much he cared all the time and how many mercilessly mocked him and held the lack of gold medal against him, it was one of the most stunning tennis days. The GOAT is now also the golden GOAT.

Time to start enjoying the last dances. So good seeing him in Brisbane. Having a career rival and a Sir at his side soon. And of course, number 25 in 2025, let's go...

Happy New Year, Warriors!

380-51 in Slam for the GOAT, further extending both match and win records.
AO: 97-9
RG: 96-16
Wim: 97-12
USO: 90-14
Enjoy the greatest journey in tennis history.
He should probably have more wins at the USO than any of the other 3 considering he went deeper there the most consistently. 10 finals, 3 SFs and made at least the SF 11 times in a row. However, he missed the tournament in 2017, defaulted in 2020, and missed it again in 2022 because of covid rules. He would be at over 100 wins there otherwise.

He could've easily been in 100+ at AO, WB, USO.

Will Djokovic ever give another Bagel at slams?

He leads the mens tour with highest bread sticks and just 1 behind Andre Agassi in bagels given in slams.

What is Grigor asking about? He mentions something ’brewing in the future‘? Is he talking about tennis like an exhibition circuit featuring top players maybe? Or is he going to give his name to a liquor or beer company like many celebrities seem to do?
I guess this was recorded back then before their exho.
