17-time Major champion Djokovic revealed what motivates him to hit the ball harder and harder as the days pass. “First of all, I must say that I am in a very privileged position and role. Someone who has had a lot of success in globally popular sports, to say something that is heard far away,” Novak told Wish & Go Podcast.
“It’s like I have a megaphone in my hands. There aren’t many athletes in that privileged position. I’ve earned it with my success and I’m grateful for it. It’s one of the reasons why I still play professional sports.”
“The biggest reason is that I love it I like to compete, and the second biggest is because I feel that the terrain in me causes a storm of emotions, which I can not experience anywhere else in such a short period of time,” he said.
