Novak Djokovic: I’m Not At Alcaraz and Sinner Level

Published

Wimbledon—Novak Djokovic isn’t accustomed to life as a middle man.

Wedged between Wimbledon winner Carlos Alcaraz and world No. 1 Jannik Sinner in the rankings, Djokovic concedes he’s not at the lofty level of his fellow reigning major champions right now

In the aftermath of his 6-2, 6-2, 7-6(4) loss to defending champion Alcaraz in the Wimbledon final today, Djokovic said he’s just not as good as the young elites.

The Grand Slam king said his desire is deep—and he hopes to lift his level for this month’s Paris Olympics and next month’s US Open.

“The Olympic Games and US Open are the two big goals for the rest of the year for me really. I’m hoping I can be at my best on those two tournaments,” Djokovic said. “That’s all I can say right now. I mean, being able to reach the finals of Wimbledon, of course, it’s a great confidence boost.

“But I also feel like in a matchup today against best player right now in the world for sure, I mean, other than Jannik, and both of them are the best this year by far, I feel like I’m not at that level.”

Stats support that feeling: Djokovic has not defeated a Top 10 opponent since his 6-3, 6-3 sweep of Sinner in the ATP Finals title match in Turin last November.

The 37-year-old Serbian superstar has spent part of his career overcoming adversity knee surgery is the latest hurdle he’s cleared.
