Former best tennis player in the world, Justine Henin, supported Novak Djokovic, after the shocking defeat in Monte Carlo!
The best tennis player in the world dropped out of the tournament in Monaco, but now a new challenge awaits him – the Serbian Open.
The defeat in Monte Carlo was not missed by the Belgian, who announced herself on this occasion. Emphasizing the psychological burden that Novak has after the chaos in Australia.
We must not underestimate the emotional seesaw and everything that Novak went through. Not only the Australian Open and not only the fact that he tried to win the 21st Grand Slam this summer at the US Open. It should be remembered that in 2020, he was disqualified at the US Open. After that, he had that heavy defeat by Nadal at Roland Garros the same year. Then came that abdominal muscle injury and a miraculous victory at the Australian Open 2021. I’m not saying that all of that will have an impact on the rest of his career, but he has to accept it all and recover from it all, said Henin.
As he further states, there is no doubt that Djokovic will be up to the task again.
These are all factors that should be taken into account when talking about Novak now. However, I think that he will recover and that we will see old Novak sooner or later, so I am not overly worried at this stage. These players are not machines. Although Novak showed us that he can handle many things and that the harder it is for him, the more he manages to return, the question is how long can he continue like this? “-concluded the former best tennis player in the world, Justine Henin.”
