Novak Djokovic insists he wants to make more history after winning gold at the Olympics.
The 37-year-old extended his lead as tennis’s most decorated Grand Slam player by winning his 24th title a year ago.
But Djokovic is hungry for more.
“People would ask me, you know, now that you have basically won everything with the golden medal, what else is there to win?” the Serb said.
“I still feel the drive. You know, I still have the competitive spirit. I still want to make more history and enjoy myself on the tour. I still hope to inspire many young people to watch tennis, play tennis.
“Those are some of the reasons why I still keep on going. Grand Slams are the pillars of our sport. They are ‘the’ most important historical tennis events that we have. So if you don’t get pumped and inspired to play your best tennis at Grand Slams, it’s hard to do that anywhere else.”
