Australian Federal Senator Ralph Babet has now made his mind known with his speech. Babet, who is the Senator for Victoria, congratulated Novak Djokovic and labeled him “Serbia’s greatest athlete” before commending him on equaling Court’s Grand Slam record.
He further expressed his appreciation for Djokovic by thanking him for proving that “humility, conviction and courage” can win in the face of strong opposition and adversity.
Babet’s words also suggest a subtle dig at his own country’s government for the way it had handled the whole affair with Djokovic back in 2022. He mentioned how the 24-time Grand Slam champion has won the biggest titles despite having to fight even against governments and not just tennis players.
