Novak Djokovic has made a big name for himself. The Serbian legend, who still manages to shut the critics, has won a total of 23 grand slams and is still hungry for more. However, in a recent revelation, it came out that while the whole world is supporting Novak Djokovic for the wonders he has done; it is his organization that pulls its hands away.

Novak Djokovic does not receive any support from the local federation

In a recent revelation, Natalija Stevanovic, a 29-year-old Serbian tennis player, shed light on the current situation going on against Novak Djokovic. She revealed that the Serbian tennis federation does not take into account the local players and does not help them to reach the top of their game.

“I’m always very sorry to say that the Federation doesn’t get any, any big part in that because when you say Djokovic, he’s pushed everything so he can become what he became. That’s why sometimes he’s envy of Serbian Federation. Now it’s Novak’s Tennis Federation, but still, it doesn’t go the way he wants at the moment, because he’s still playing and really, he had sponsors from America since a young age. revealed Stevanovic in the podcast.
