After not being heard from in a number of years, Jelena Jankovic returned to the spotlight momentarily for an interview with Slovenian publication Dnevnik, she spoke about her relationship with a certain Novak Djokovic during the interview.
Jankovic, a former World No.1 who announced her retirement in July 2022 has spent most of her time off court dedicated to bringing up her daughter. She said that she hopes that Djokovic can improve all his records already before he retires and then enjoy his life. She called him 'inhuman' and a 'phenomenon' in high praise from the 39-year-old.
"We talk occasionally, but I regularly congratulate him on his successes, which are almost inhuman in my terms. He is a true ambassador of our country, who has improved all records. I want him to build on them and later enjoy with his family for the rest of his life," she said. "There are no boundaries for him."
"Novak is a phenomenon. He invests a lot in nutrition, health, his team. Everything he invested in himself and his loved ones was returned to him many times over," she continued. "That's why I always emphasize how important it is to respect your body, because life is very short, and the sports journey is only part of that journey."
"It's hard to imagine the strain the body experiences with all the travel, time differences and numerous matches played to the extreme. But Novak has found a formula that allows him to do all this. It is truly amazing in every way," she said.
