As the season 2023 came to an end, fans witnessed the rise of several young players like Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner. While the young ones are still hustling to level themselves up, Novak Djokovic has been maintaining a form that stays almost untouchable by any force in the community for now.

While the Serbian tennis legend has had a glorious professional career of more than two decades, it appears that age stands to be the least important factor for him. Recently, Novak Djokovic opened up about his current physical status and his views on his retirement.

Novak Djokovic gives a major update on his retirement plans

The 2023 season came out to be nothing less than a great showdown of action for Novak Djokovic fans. While the Serbs kept hitting victories one after the other, the spectators cheered to the fullest. However, along with the cheers, a realization of the fact that their favorite tennis star is above the mark of 35 always stayed as a dread.

Giving his fans a sigh of relief, tennis legend Novak Djokovic reassured fans that he’s not anywhere close to hanging his racket yet. Opening up about his retirement plans in a recent interview, Djokovic said, “I feel great in my own body right now and been playing some really high-quality tennis. 2023 was one of the best seasons I have had in my life, and why stop while you’re still playing great? So keep going and take one year by one while you go.”

Along with assuring fans of his stable presence in the tennis world, Novak Djokovic also quoted a mark that he wishes to touch. “Hopefully, I can have a career that goes to 40 or maybe even beyond let’s see you know,” he added. While he has no plans to leave his mark, fans can take a breath of relief, being assured of his prolonged presence.
