Novak Djokovic gained the final two Grand Slams performed, Wimbledon and the US Open. Djokovic believes that holding all the four Grand Slam titles at the same time like he did between July 2015 and June 2016, is possible.
“I have confidence. It’s some old-new self-confidence. Each season is a new site and a new challenge,” the world no. 3 explained to reporters in Belgrade on Monday.
“I am a different player and person then I was three years ago. I know that everyone wants to use the 2015 parameter as a benchmark for all the other seasons and to ask if it’s possible to repeat something like that… four in a row.
“Do I believe that I can repeat that success? Of course I believe, otherwise, I would not play tennis.”
Asked to pick the key moment for his resurgence, the 31-year-old added:
“It’s hard to choose one moment, but if I had to choose, it’s a moment after losing in Roland Garros, when I took four, five days with my wife and went to hiking and stayed in nature.
After that, everything went well. I played Queens' Finals, won Wimbledon, Cincinnati and the US Open and it’s a big run. I am grateful for this, because in the first few months after the operation, I had difficulty on the court.
I had to make some adjustments, especially the service. I changed the racket at the end of last year. When you lose more matches than you win, and when you change the racket and the team, then you are wondering if all of these moves are correct and you have dilemmas.
This experience is important to me because it allowed me to learn much more about myself, as well as to learn to deal with these situations.”
