"He told me he was human, not a superhero": Novak Djokovic makes open admission to Holger Rune ahead of Monte-Carlo
ATPMonday, 08 April 2024 at 01:00
Denmark’s young tennis star Holger Rune has revealed that
Serbia’s Novak Djokovic told him that he is ‘not a superhero’.
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.
Rune, who himself is regarded as one of the most
highly-rated players currently playing in the men’s singles category alongside
Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz and Italy’s Jannik Sinner, was recently quoted in a
report where he revealed that Djokovic told him before the start of the Monte
Carlo Masters that he is ‘not a superhero’.
“He gave me advice on the mental level, because he’s a
beast,” said Rune. “But he told me he was human, not a superhero. He also feels
the emotions we all feel, but he handles them differently than other players.
“He told me that this was one of the reasons why he was more
successful than others. It’s impressive to watch him, just like Rafa and
Roger.”
Djokovic did not take
part in the Miami Open but had a hard time playing in the Indian Wells where he
was knocked out of the ATP 1000 event after losing to Italy’s Luca Nardi with a
score of 6-4, 3-6, 6-3.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
