“Gold medal for Serbia 🇷🇸” He may have been wrong with his sets prediction, but if you doubted for one second that Tom Brady didn’t back his buddy Novak Djoković, well you’re gravely mistaken. 😅✌🏼 Love this bromance so much! See you in New York Tom! 🐐 @DjokerNole 🤝🏼 @TomBrady
"He's a cyborg" quips Matteo Berrettini on Novak Djokovic still playing world class tennis at 37
ATPThursday, 15 August 2024 at 17:39
Matteo Berrettini called Novak Djokovic a cyborg for his longevity in the sport which sees the 24-time Grand Slam champion still playing at the highest level at 37.
Berrettini dropped into the live show of the Served podcast with Andy Roddick and spoke about Djokovic with high praise. He said that he gets goosebumps and doesn't believe he himself will reach 37 on the court.
But that is merely due to his chequered injury past which has seen Berrettini not be able to sustain his excellence in recent years due to injury. The Italian though has performed superbly as of late though. Capturing the ATP 250 title in Marrakech in April, he went on to seal both Gstaad and Kitzbuhel recently.
He was beaten though in the opening round in Cincinnati on Wednesday. Djokovic however will not be back in action until at least the US Open. After his gold medal exploits in Paris, he has decided instead to take a break.
He has instead been soaking up the adulation back home of his excellent gold medal run and as ever won't be back in action for some time after that.
“Talking about Novak and what he has achieved, it’s incredible I get goosebumps,” said Berrettini.
“I don’t know how he does it. He’s a cyborg because at 37 he’s still playing at this level. Personally, I don’t know if I’m still going to play at 37, given my injury history, I don’t know.”

- 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".
