Djokovic reveals his true feelings for the first time while participating in a tournament in China.
Novak Djokovic arrived in Shanghai with a mindset more balanced than ever, blending ambition to conquer with heartfelt gratitude. He sincerely shared his desires and thoughts at this phase of his career.
Djokovic aims for a rematch with Jannik Sinner.
The player who has won 24 Grand Slam titles recently suffered a loss to Carlos Alcaraz in the US Open semifinals, then moved to Athens for rest and training. Alternating family time and practice sessions, Djokovic decided to participate in the Shanghai Masters, a tournament he has been closely associated with many times.
The Serbian legend reflected on the demanding 2025 season. The competition from Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner has reached a new level, making every major match a tough test of both his physical and mental endurance.
Although he acknowledges that keeping pace with the two young stars at Grand Slam events is increasingly challenging, Djokovic—at 38 years old—is proud of his remarkable consistency. He has reached the semifinals of all four Grand Slams this season, clearly proving his ability to maintain elite performance and defeat nearly any opponent despite being on tennis’s biggest stage for over 20 years.
Djokovic’s mindset and goals have shifted as he competes at the 2025 Shanghai Masters at age 38.
At this age and after having achieved nearly every honor, Djokovic’s priorities have changed. Whereas trophies once motivated him, now the 100-time ATP title winner draws greater energy from the fans and satisfaction from contributing to the sport he has shaped for more than two decades. He talks about the joy of competition, the value of connection, and the significance of leaving a positive legacy for future generations.
Djokovic’s competitive spirit still burns strong. Therefore, he openly admits his eagerness to face Jannik Sinner in Shanghai, despite having lost to the Italian in all five of their recent encounters.
Djokovic views a match against the four-time Grand Slam champion not only as a challenge but also as an opportunity to test his own progress. If this happens in the semifinals, it will confirm the high level of form he has maintained this season.
