Novak Djokovic (38 years old) qualified in the finals of the Roland Garros tournament, after defeating Filip Misolic with 6-3, 6-4, 6-2. After the match, the Serb spoke, of course, about the Champions League final, which he could not follow.
A journalist asked if he is envious of Rafael Nadal (38 years old) and Roger Federer (43) because they were able to follow the Champions League final, PSG winning in front of Inter (5-0), on Allianz Arena.
Roger Federer retired from tennis in September 2022, and the Spaniard followed 2 years later.
Novak Djokovic: “If I had no match, I would have watched the Champions League final”
“No, no, I'm not envious at all. If I had not had a match I would have watched the match but, on the other hand, I had the feeling that I watched the game, because the audience was so absorbed by the TVs, they were watching the score, it disturbed our match quite a lot. I understand the enthusiasm, Paris won the Champions League for the first time. The city will boil, “said the Serbian tennis, quoted by Sportal.Blic.rs.
Djokovic wanted to follow the final of the Champions League in the hotel, but the organizers did not fulfill his wish and scheduled his match against Misolic in the evening session, from 9:30 pm.
Djokovic will play in the finals of Monday, against Cameron Norrie (UK), which he already defeated five times in his career.
