Courier on Djokovic's longevity in tennis: "I could easily see him playing Tom Brady-like years"
ATPFriday, 18 November 2022 at 14:30
Jim Courier firmly believes that Novak Djokovic could play up until 40 which even Djokovic himself would not be quick to confirm.
Djokovic has been playing some amazing tennis this year and while he wasn't able to play the entire year it might have been a blessing in disguise. Obviously not playing events like the US Open and Australian Open hurt his overall legacy but he was able to rest his body quite well this year which might prove beneficial next year.
Courier certainly thinks his health could see him play for many more years:
"So it looks like he has all of his options again and his 35-year-old body is not the average 35-year-old body and I could easily see him playing for Tom Brady like years."
He added:
"I'm really excited about him and as fans is that he's started to hit that kick serve again which had disappeared after the elbow surgery. So that's another part of his arsenal that he can bring in and get people off the ad court where he'd been largely just hitting more body serve and slice serves to seemingly protect his elbows."
