And, NOT to pour more fire on this conversation, but we are a tennis forum.
Srjdan Djokovic again
has given some comments that are "colorful". I have to express again, THIS IS NOT NOVAK SPEAKING.
But is is hard to believe that this does not paint Novak poorly, as unfair as that is.
Some comments, as that site is like plagued with ads (my comments in parenthesis):
Speaking about the fact that there were almost full crowds in at SW19 but he and his wife were not permitted to attend, Srjdan Djokovic said: “My wife and I wanted to go to Wimbledon, but these horrible people did not let us because we had to go in quarantine for a week, even though the stadium was packed with 15,000, 16,000 people.
"I will never forget that."
(Wimbledon must be trembling in their boots)
Responding to a question about his son’s position as the best tennis player in the world, Srjdan responded: “I have to correct you. In the beginning you said Djokovic is the best tennis player in the world, he even is the best sportsman in the world.
“Currently he is one of the best of all time, but very quickly he will be the best athlete ever.”
(I am actually partial to this, since I have the opinion that tennis players are some of the best athletes in the world. But I am an unknown chipmunk, talking in a small website, not Novak's dad)
In a bizarre outburst Srjdan said: “Patriotism is above all.
"The only option for all of us Serbs in the world is our mother Serbia. Novak is the key, Novak is gold, Novak is an indicator that nothing is impossible if you really want to, Novak is a member of every normal family in this country.
“Novak is your brother. Novak behaves in such a way that everyone feels like he is theirs. And he is from Serbia, he is of Serbian descent.”
(If you listen to that statement with PINK FLOYD's WAITING FOR THE WORMS as soundtrack, it kind of makes you scratch your chin)
