In 2025, he plans to participate in more tournaments than this year, the French news agency AFP announced.
This was an unsuccessful year for Djokovic by his standards, despite winning Olympic gold in Paris. On the tennis list, he slipped to seventh place, which he wants to correct in the battle with young stars like the Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz and the Italian Jannik Sinner and get to the place “where he should be”.
– I want a good start to the season and more consistency in all tournaments – he said while preparing for the tournament in Brisbane.
– I want to play in more tournaments than last season, I hope that my form will also improve – he added.
The winner of 24 Grand Slams, in the 2025 season, for the first time, on the other side, he will not have one of those with whom he formed the so-called big four. The Spanish Rafael Nadal and the British Andy Murray ended their careers this year, and the Swiss Roger Federer in 2022.
Djokovic, who will be chasing his 11th title at the Australian Open and a record 25th Grand Slam title in January, emphasized that he is not thinking about ending his career.
– Considering my current state of mind, I think I can play at a high level for a few more years. But how long I will be motivated enough is impossible to predict – he said, adding that he still loves tennis and competition.
Djokovic is the first seed at the tournament in Brisbane, where he will also play in the doubles competition. He will be joined there by Australian Nick Kyrgios, who is returning to competitive tennis after injuries and a break, reports STA.
