Novak Djokovic recently sent the entire crowd at the Paris Masters into a frenzy by pulling off yet another feat. The Serbian tennis legend, who was once chasing records for a long time, is breaking his own these days. Even in the neighborhood of Bercy, the ATP superstar has now reached his 58th Masters Final after prevailing in a thriller semifinal against Andrey Rublev.

Aside from his outstanding performance, the public’s curiosity has been piqued by the 24-time singles Grand Slam champion’s professional relationship with his coach, Goran Ivanišević. The Croatian tennis coach, who has always accompanied the Serb during his participation in various events, is missing from his box during the ongoing Paris Masters. And the reason for his absence is that the 52-year-old has been obliged to take a break to undergo knee surgery and is currently recovering.

Did Novak Djokovic split up with coach Goran Ivanišević?

In a recent interview with Eurosport in Paris, the 36-year-old opened up about how his coach helps him chase greatness on the court. Djokovic suggested that he depends on Ivanišević for motivation, while he also called him his childhood idol. However, now that he is in his late 30s, the Serb jokingly said that his team has to work hard to get the best out of him.

“Goran and the rest of the team are trying to find new ways to motivate me. They haven’t been succeeding much so far,” Djokovic said. During the conversation, the 24-time singles Grand Slam champion asserted that he and his coach always have a lot of fun while sharing a great friendship.
