"Do you think you are the best player in the world ?" Djokovic : "No, I'm fifth. This week I was the best. But Alcaraz is the number one, he deserves it. (...) But in my head, it's always the same, the ambition is as high as possible. I feel motivated, good in my own body."
Djokovic doesn't believe he is best player in the world: "No I'm fifth, Alcaraz is the number one he deserves it"

Despite going undefeated at the 2022 ATP Finals, Djokovic remains humble calling himself the 5th best player in the world as opposed to the best.
Djokovic dominated at the 2022 ATP Finals getting to the final without dropping a match and he won the final against Ruud as well. Speaking after the match, Djokovic remained humble explaining that he's not the best player in the world:
"No, I'm fifth. This week I was the best. But Alcaraz is the number one, he deserves it. (...) But in my head, it's always the same, the ambition is as high as possible. I feel motivated, good in my own body."
Djokovic will have a chance to reclaim the number one spot next year when he starts to play most events again as he was unable to play a lot of events this year.
