About this deal

I'm really living my childhood dream to compete at the highest level in this sport, which has given me and my family so much from difficult circumstances. For the third time in his career, Djokovic made it to the finals of all four majors, adding to his victories at the Australian Open in January and French Open in June. He lost in the Wimbledon final to Carlos Alcaraz, whom Djokovic will overtake at No. 1 this week. Alcaraz, the defending champion at Flushing Meadows, was eliminated by No. 3 seed Medvedev in the semifinals.

Something appeared to be troubling Djokovic physically as he held a long game for 4-4 and survived Medvedev's first break point of the match. This was a kid who grew up playing tennis in an empty swimming pool and he became the greatest tennis player of all time. You can try to psychoanalyse all you want but the fact is he has put all the pieces of the puzzle together. He can't get any better." With Medvedev deep behind the baseline when receiving, Djokovic smartly decided to serve-volley on his way to 4-1 - a tactic he employed throughout - and showed his all-round quality to close out the opening set. Djokovic said that his father was “misused” by the pro-Putin supporters. Djokovic Sr did not attend his son’s match against Paul, but Djokovic said he would like his father to be present for the final against Stefanos Tsitsipas on Sunday. “He was passing through, made a photo, it has escalated. He was misused in this situation by this group of people. That’s what happened,” said Djokovic.

Further tears followed as he went to celebrate with his nearest and dearest, which included parents Srdjan and Dijana, wife Jelena, son Stefan - and Hollywood actor Matthew McConaughey. This is one of the biggest achievements in sports history. We're not talking about tennis. We are talking generally in sport." Djokovic has won eight of the past 12 majors he has played at and will replace Alcaraz again as the world number one on Monday.

To make history [in] this sport is just something truly remarkable and special, obviously, in every possible way, in every possible meaning of the word," the second-seeded Djokovic said on the court following the win. "It's hard to describe the words."But knowing that I play at such a high level still and I win the biggest tournaments in this sport … I don’t want to leave this sport if I’m still at the top, if I’m still playing the way I’m playing.” The odds were pretty much against me and my family. It was not accessible, not affordable, but I fell in love with tennis," he said. Djokovic's relentless returning continued to draw mistakes out of Medvedev, who was serving poorly and making loose errors, at the start of the second set.
