With the latest injury things are looking not good for this legendary player and if he wants to stay in touch with more tennis he needs to complete rehabilitation and then join tennis again if his body allows him for this because now he is 36 and after few months he could be 37 mean things are getting worst for him with these injuries, and he needs to be more complete.
But, if he rush for this French Open then surely things could be no ok, and he can lose his career like we have Roger Federer even he was in his forties, but he needs to be perfect for having more titles and Grand Slams but now on Clay he has big challenge from his countryman Alcaraz as well because he is also doing good job and with the fightback of Djokovic we will have good interesting matches in coming days.
You are right. Of course, it is going to be better for him if he takes enough time to get healthy first and then play in tournaments. Because he is going to be able to give his 100% only if he is healthy. Otherwise, he will feel like he is not giving his 100%. And that starting is not going to go away, and he will play again probably carrying another injury.
So, of course, it is going to be best if he decides to get healthy first. Because even if he is 100% healthy it is going to be hard for him already to compete against the likes of Novak Djokovic and Alcaraz, let alone not being healthy.
Thats a possibility, I wonder what the order of priority is for Djokovic, Targets like
No.1 ranking, numbers of Grand Slam wins and overall tournament wins are there
for sure but I figure the 4 Grand Slams are the top priority.
They have the biggest prestige, biggest prize money, he is tied with one if his biggest rivals
and wants to pull clear of him and also GS titles are a measure of greatness, not just now
but in the future, its like building a legacy!
He would probably like to have everything. And all at the same time. But winning a real Grand Slam is probably the biggest thing of all. Especially because the last Grand Slam was quite a long time ago: 1969.
Although a Golden Slam is even better. But only Steffi Graf has achieved that so far in 1988. But next year would be another opportunity for that.
Novak Djokovic has performed really well in this recent Australian Open. So, I think we can expect a good performance from him. In this Australian Open actually, no one even came close to him in terms of competition. So, I believe that he's going to perform really well in this tournament as well. But he will have some competition, better competition at least. And the best competition for him is going to be Alcaraz. There will be a lot more skillful gameplay on display.
