Novak Djokovic Labelled The Greatest Tennis Player Of All Time By Fellow Serbian Olga Danilovic

Novak Djokovic’s impact on the tennis world is undeniable. A 24-time Grand Slam champion, he has solidified his place as one of the greatest athletes of all time.

But beyond his on-court achievements, Djokovic’s influence extends far beyond the tennis court, particularly in his native Serbia.

Rising Serbian star Olga Danilovic recently opened up about the profound impact Djokovic has had on her and other Serbian tennis players.

Danilovic, who reached the fourth round of the French Open this year, expressed her admiration for Djokovic’s dedication, generosity, and unwavering support.

“Having Novak represent our country in the best way possible and taking care of every player there is on tour, especially Serbians, is massive,” Danilovic said.

“He is always there for us, and he always finds time for us. He is a very down-to-earth guy. Having him is such a blessing.”

Novak Djokovic won one of the best points of the year.

Djokovic Hailed As The Greatest Of All Time

Danilovic emphasised Djokovic’s unparalleled achievements, stating, “He is absolutely the greatest player of all time. Being Serbian and having his name as every record in No. 1, it’s something we are all so proud of.

“He is going to leave a crazy legacy behind of being the greatest athlete in the world. He has that Serbian mentality.”

Beyond his on-court prowess, Djokovic is also a champion for tennis players at all levels. He has been instrumental in advocating for fairer prize money distribution and has formed the Professional Tennis Players Association (PTPA) to protect players’ rights.

Djokovic’s commitment to the sport extends beyond his playing days. He has expressed his desire to remain involved in tennis in various capacities, ensuring that his legacy continues to inspire future generations.

Following Rafael Nadal’s retirement announcement and after Roger Federer hung up the racket in 2022, Djokovic will soon be the last remaining active player of the “big three”.

For players like Danilovic, Djokovic’s example serves as a constant source of motivation and inspiration. His enduring legacy will undoubtedly shape the future of Serbian tennis and the sport as a whole.
