I was scrolling a bit and basically Djokovic was the GOAT 2 weeks ago, still so young, moving so well beyond of this age, going for an other Slam once again, a true inspiration. And now he is too old, we are in a complete new era, he is finished for tennis … this is funny

Novak Djokovic was dumped out of the 2024 Australian Open by Jannik Sinner who went on to be crowned champion after winning 6-1, 6-2, 6-7, 6-3 against the 24-time Grand Slam and 10-time Australian Open champion. But it is also saw people mooting a change in the guard and some even saying he is finished.
Former WTA Finals champion and fellow pro, Caroline Garcia took to social media on Tuesday afternoon wondering why the perception of Djokovic had suddenly changed from him being seen as the GOAT to it suddenly being a new era and he is too old and finished.
"I was scrolling a bit and basically Djokovic was the GOAT 2 weeks ago, still so young, moving so well beyond of this age, going for an other Slam once again, a true inspiration. And now he is too old, we are in a complete new era, he is finished for tennis … this is funny," wrote Garcia on X (formerly known as Twitter).
Some in the comments namely Djokovic fans praised Garcia for this point of view, while others said that it has happened before and it only takes one tournament before the discourse changes again. "It is the same cycle over and over again. I remember what they wrote when he was down a set and a break against Carlos Alcaraz in the Cincinnati final," wrote one fan.
"This is how this social works, people only need ONE SINGLE EVENT to completely change their minds and cancel what happened before," another wrote.
