Novak Djokovic is not planning any retirement soon revealed his father Srdjan Djokovic in a recent interview.
The defeat of Novak Djokovic in the final of the 2021 US Open started many stories. Some of the stories have revolved around his possible retirement coming sooner than many though as Djokovic became very emotional talking about being away from his family and seeing his children grow up without him. It's something that has been talked about by many tennis players and Djokovic is no different.
Those talks are now done and dusted as his father Srdjan Djokovic revealed his plans:
"Novak is not planning retirement. He wants to play at least until 2024 Paris Olympics."
Srdjan Djokovic is known for his outspoken views and he often made remarks that have been deemed controversial at best however he is the first person close to Novak Djokovic to reveal any sort of plan. Whether Novak Djokovic truly plans to play that long remains to be seen but he is certainly capable of doing so if he stays healthy.
It would also give him a very solid chance at breaking many more records which is something he had admitted still motivates him, especially the grand slam one.

- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.

- Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.mandoist08-11-2026

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.mandoist06-11-2026

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
