"How far does it go, tell me?!: Former Djokovic coach fumes over Goran Ivanisevic coach of the year snub
ATPThursday, 11 January 2024 at 07:00
Former world number six Nikola Pilic has expressed his anger after Goran Ivanisevic was once again not named the Coach of the Year.
The 52-year-old has been working with the current world number one Novak Djokovic for a long time and played a key role in his success over the years as well. Last year, the 36-year-old had another fabulous season at the highest level where he ended up winning three out of four Grand Slams.
Despite that unmatched success, the Coach of the Year was awarded to the coach of Italy’s Jannik Sinner during the ATP awards. Pilic, who also worked with Djokovic as a coach in the past, was recently quoted in a report where expressed his anger about the decision as according to him, there is no coach other than Ivanisevic who deserves the award more.
"Janik Sinner is a good player, but he has not won any Grand Slam," he said. "And now his coach, Australian Darren Cahill, gets the trophy as the best coach, not Goran? So how far does it go, tell me?!
"We rarely hear from each other, we mostly communicate via SMS messages. I won't bother him. A million people bother him. It is primarily about congratulations. Well done Novak, you are the best."
