“For an old guy, not so bad, huh? People think I’m too old, too slow, but somehow I manage to find a way to win these kind of matches, especially the ones that go the distance.”

He beat 3 times Hard Court major winner PEAK Sinner at a Hard Court Slam 9 months ago.

2026 Novak is the definition of insanely high ceiling and insanely low floor he can win or lose against virtually anyone depending on what his form is on that given day
Basically the exact opposite of Zverev who rarely seems to go higher or lower than B+/A- tier play

Beat sinner at gs, lost to navone at gs. The whole spectrum. Both in 5. But tbh i cant constructively say hes getting worse daily or his deterioration is linear (bc sometimes it feels exponential, sometimes it feels meh...you literally cant tell anything atp).

Two wins against Sinner and Zverev, and sandwiched between them are R1 losses against Tirante and Navone
You are an anomaly Mr. Djokovic

Motivated by spite in the twilight years of his career

Are you chasing Zverev now? After Alcaraz and Sinner? Git gud unc.
Proceeds to winning Paris, Turin and AO27. NOT BAD HUH?

The problem is people start supporting him when he makes a deep run. We need to keep rage baiting until he wins
