‘Illusions of your ego’: Novak Djokovic’s blunt message to Roger Federer
Novak Djokovic believes he will win the most grand slam titles and become the longest-reigning world No.1 by the time he retires.
With 17 grand slam titles to his name – two behind Rafa Nadal and three fewer than Roger Federer – the world No.1 says he has no doubt in his ability to overtake the other members of the so-called ‘Big Three.’
“I believe I can win the most slams and break the record for longest No.1. Those are definitely my clear goals.”
The 32-year-old Serb was in imperious form before the coronavirus pandemic brought the circuit to a halt in early March.
He lifted the ATP Cup with Serbia, won an eighth Australian Open title and then completed a fifth triumph at the Dubai Tennis Championships, extending his unbeaten run to 21.
