Being Djokovic's coach must be the toughest job on Earth ! Huge Respect To Goran , well done Sir.

[@quarkgluonplasma3614]

Yeah, right...the guy plays the same as he used in 2008, he was more less completed player when turned pro, probably born for this sport , one in a million, sometimes it looks like he is a tennis robot programmed for the game. Not my words. Just tell me what can be so tough there. It should be on Contrairee, i suppose, correct me if i'm wrong

[@Eudemoni_]

@@quarkgluonplasma3614 If u think its about tennis skills, yes you dont get it indeed.

[@drudi1]

@QuarkGluon Plasma Djokovic improved his serve a lot while being with Ivanišević. His serve saved him today. He had 95% first serve in the first set😂. It'd been mjch tighter match if not for it All players need coaches to not lose themselves during the match, some things Djokovic couldn't have seen, his coaches saw and helped him get past them during or after the match. Of course, they are much less important to Djokovic than, for example, to Alcaraz's who is still developing and need his coaches to help him grow and improve, but Djokovic's are important for finesses which separate him from the others and make him the best

[@danijelamikic5363]

Off course it is,but Goran know the mentality,he was also like Novak when play in the highest level

To be fair, I think that Gilles Cervara has a little bit of a tougher time with Medvedev 😅

[@beltcro]

As an Australian of Greek descent of course it would have been nice to see Tsitsipas win, but what we saw on the court was a tiumph of the human spirit to beat sustained psychological and physical attacks on the body and the mind.. and as the son of a migrant I witnessed a victory of much more than that over an opponent in a tennis match. Bravo Novak.

Its a fact that Goran is a Croatian citizen. Undoubtedly Goran's heart and mind belongs to the Croatian nation. But its also an inconvenient fact, rather a tabu that the Invaniševićs just like a considerable percent of the present day Croatian families have a Serbian ethnic roots.

Reminds me of the mentality ofTiger Woods when he won Players after having three spinal surgeries and a spinal fusion.

I don't know... Becker and Novak also worked succesfully together for three years. Becker was also an emotional top player just as Goran was and did help Novak probably in similar ways as Goran does as they shared similar game experiences and ways to deal with tough match situations. And since Becker is not from the Balkan it seems probably more the character of Novaks coach and not necessarily his birth place that matters!?

It was a great move. They also had a transition period... while Novak worked with both Goran and Marion... then he remained with Goran, motivating that his tennis pro activity will slow down.

[@pdouglas4831]

The people around Novak probably don't get enough credit for the stress they endure day in and day out. The drive and the fire that you see on court must come out sometimes off it, and the extreme mental toughness he calls on when he plays must express itself in other situations. It can't always be unicorns and rainbows to be around someone with so much intensity to draw on. He's a lot of car--too much for most of his opponents---and the upkeep must be very costly, though ultimately rewarding, for the people close to him. It's s a real privilege and inspiration to see greatness from afar, but I wouldn't be in their shoes for anything.

@@quarkgluonplasma3614 but of course we are in the high ligue and they don't need us and our comments. But I feel it really nice to exchange here about this phenomenon calles Novak, with people from around the world and see and read their views. Even those which are more on the negativ side. That is what discussing is all about. And one finds real nice comments, sometimes philosophical ones which I like very much. So I am happy to have talked to you ;o)) How about you singing along a bit....... *smile*

Goran gives best interviews, always has given. He is a trusted persona. I respect him for that. Hvala Gorane👍👍👍❤️

Goran being Novak's coach is a great thing and should help bring Croats and Serbs together.

Amazing. With all the mind games the world throws at Nole, he is to me, a great example of "Be passerbys".
