World number one Novak Djokovic has admitted that he did not get the desired amount of rest after having an amazing 2023 season.
The 36-year-old is often regarded as the greatest player in the history of men’s tennis in the Open era, having won as many as 24 Grand Slam titles.
Djokovic had a fabulous time in 2023 on the court where he ended up winning three out of the four Grand Slams. His only defeat in a major tournament last year came in the final at Wimbledon where he lost to the current world number two Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz with a score of 1–6, 7–6(8–6), 6–1, 3–6, 6–4.
The Serbian tennis star was recently quoted in a report where he stated that he did not get the desired amont of rest after a historic campaign
"I made some amazing records, also history of the sport, that took a lot out of me,” he said. “So I didn't feel like I really had the proper time to rest and to do a proper preparation block like maybe I would normally do. But it is what it is.
"I don't think I played my best tennis in Australia, whereas Jannik [Sinner] did, and he was just far better player than me that day [in the semi-finals]. And after that, he he made an incredible comeback in the final and won his first title. So it was absolutely deserved."
