Joining the club
Though he stole the show at the 2007 U.S. Open with his off-court antics and
on-court play, Serbia's Novak Djokovic finished what he started in New York
four months later in Melbourne by winning his first Grand Slam title, the
Australian Open. Just over a month later, he won the Pacific Life Open to put
him in any talks involving the elite players of tennis -- usually reserved to
just Spain's Rafael Nadal and Switzerland's Roger Federer. "Looking at the
past couple events and two major events in the start of the year I won, the
people obviously look at me as one of the biggest favorites ... for (the)
upcoming season," Djokovic told reporters at the Sony Ericsson Open. "In this
year, I have ... responsibility and pressure, of course. Whoever I play, most
of the matches, I have the role of favorite. But this is sport. This is
something I have to handle."
雖然在2007年美網大出風頭,球場外滑稽的肢體動作和球場上的表現,來自塞爾維亞的
諾瓦克‧喬科維奇在美網的四個月後,在墨爾本獲得了他的第一個大滿貫澳洲公開賽
僅僅一個月後他贏了太平洋生活盃,讓他躍升為頂尖網球選手之一,擠進一般認為是
西班牙納豆和瑞士奶牛之列. 看過去幾個賽事和兩個我贏的賽事. 人們顯然視我為接下來
賽事有希望的獲勝者之一
Overcoming the hump
Most players own 0-(insert double digit) records against either Federer or
Nadal. While Djokovic owns a modest 5-11 record against them both in his
career, he is 2-1 against both Federer and Nadal since the ATP Masters Series
Canada in 2007. "Whenever I play (Federer) or Rafa I learn something new from
those matches, and obviously, as the two most dominant players in the last
couple of years, they deserve the highest respect," Djokovic said at the Sony
Ericsson Open. "This is what I have for them, of course, as a professional
athlete. But as soon as we get to the court, it's a different story.
Throughout my career, I always had this advantage -- mental advantage. ...
This is a very encouraging fact for the future -- that I can be able to focus
myself in the most important moments and to believe that I can be on the top."
His main priority
At Indian Wells, California where he won his second tournament of the year,
Djokovic was asked about where the Olympics would rank in importance --
technically, despite his current No. 3 ranking, Djokovic will not qualify for
Beijing until the June 9 world rankings are released. "(The Olympics are)
probably on the top -- one of the tops for sure," Djokovic told reporters at
the Pacific Life Open. "I mean, come on, Olympics. You get to play Grand
Slams every year, you know -- four Grand Slams. Olympics, you get to play one
time in four years, and who knows what till happen in four years for us. So I
will not risk that, and I'll be very honored and privileged to participate in
such an event."
Politically minded
In February of 2008, Kosovo declared its independence from Serbia, causing
civil unrest in an area that most of Djokovic's family calls home. The
separation from Serbia, as well as angering most Serbs, has caused division
in Kosovo. Djokovic taped a speech in that same month that was aired in
Belgrade during a rally to keep Kosovo and Serbia as one. "I wanted to give
the people support, and I just wanted to let them know that I am there with
them and that I'm supporting Serbia and Kosovo," Djokovic told reporters in
Indian Wells. "... This was a very unique situation, so I did something that
I felt (like) doing."
Still the Djok-er
While he has touched on much more serious topics, Djokovic has shown he's
still just a kid, soon to be 21, in a lot of ways. Most notably was his
"play" at the 2007 U.S. Open where video of Djokovic doing impersonations of
Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Maria Sharapova had made its rounds on
YouTube and around the internet. It was even a featured bit on USA Network
after he won in the quarterfinals of the U.S. Open.
