Goran Ivanisevic joined the coaching staff of Novak Djokovic in 2019 and since then has helped him achieve a great deal of success.
The former Wimbledon champion and world number two has a good relationship with Djokovic but Ivanisevic explained it's not easy coaching the Serbian ace. In a conversation with Tennis.com Ivanisevic said:
“To be honest, it is very stressful. People think my job with Novak is easy, but it is not. I give you my job for one week and you see if you are going to give me back my job or not."

Ivanisevic helped Djokovic win the Roland Garros and Wimbledon recently with the Serbian looking a healthy favourite for another huge milestone at the Tokyo Olympic Games. Ivanisevic also said:
“It is great to work with such a great athlete and player, but very demanding also. A final is not good enough. You need to win. We only count victories. We only count Slams. That is huge stress. But I choose that. I love it. It pushes me to learn more and be a better coach and a better person. I really enjoy
it.”

- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.

mandoist09-11-2026 - Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.
mandoist08-11-2026 - Can't help but suspect Vukov is back to his old self again. Thank you, WTA. Perhaps you can give them a "Battling Couple of the Year Award 2026" ??
