Privacy is a necessity when it comes to tennis. Well, privacy is essential in every aspect of one’s life. However, in tennis, it is one of the major requirements for players. The players are always exposed to fans, media, and journalists when they are traveling or moving from one place to another. Training sessions are one particular area where they deserve their privacy.

Respecting the players’ privacy, Wimbledon does not allow outsiders, fans, or journalists inside the players’ practicing arena. However, a certain outsider managed to invade Novak Djokovic‘s privacy at Wimbledon. Well, he might not really be an outsider since he was none other than Carlos Alcaraz‘s father.

Carlos Alcaraz’s father sneakily enters the training grounds

Rivals are often found training together on the practice grounds. On Monday, Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz both were training at the same time. The Spaniard arrived with his entire team but his dad’s focus was not on him. He was more interested in following what the Serb was doing on the other end.

Later, Djokovic shared his thoughts on the importance of privacy and the difficulties of training alongside his peers. He said via b92, “The circumstances are such that we don’t have privacy in training. Sometimes I would like to have more privacy. Then it gives me more opportunities to try some things, to communicate more clearly with my team.? You know your rivals are there, everyone is looking over your shoulder at what’s going on. Every shot is measured, evaluated, and assessed. That, through some analysis, affects the eventual meeting with Alcaraz or anyone tomorrow.”
