The 32-year-old joked of having an unbeaten season in 2020. However, the 17-time Grand Slam winner seems determined to add more titles to his trophy haul. Completing the sunshine double is the next big target for the Serb.
Djokovic is scheduled to play the first Masters events of the season at the Indian Wells and Miami.
