Serbia’s legendary tennis star Novak Djokovic’s trainer believes that the current world number one is genetically superior to other athletes. The 36-year-old is often regarded as the greatest player in the history of men’s singles tennis in the Open era, having won as many as 24 Grand Slam titles.
Marco Panichi, who is the trainer of the current world number one, believes that he is genetically superior to other athletes which makes it very hard for others to copy him.

“There is more than one reason, but any consideration must start from the fact that Nole is genetically a phenomenon,” he said. “He is someone capable of doing everything with simplicity and consistency, but also capable of doing things that others are prevented from doing.
“Nole is a demanding champion, he wants a lot from himself and, consequently, those around him must adapt to these ambitions. And his motivation is always very high, he never suffers any downturn. We start training again on December 10, then he goes to Australia and starts the circuit again.”
Djokovic had a fabulous year at the highest level where he ended up winning three out of four Grand Slams. His only defeat in a major tournament came in the final at Wimbledon where he lost to Spain’s young sensation Carlos Alcaraz in a five-set thrilling contest with a score of 1–6, 7–6(8–6), 6–1, 3–6, 6–4.
