Novak Djokovic is going to face Matteo Berrettini in the Wimbledon final. Djokovic is very successful and he has a very nice attitude. Nevertheless, for some reason, he does not have a great relationship with the fans in Wimbledon even if he won the Championships already 5 times.
After his successful 2019 final against Roger Federer in Wimbledon, it was quite startling to see how much the public favored the Swiss sensation. After the match, Novak has revealed that he used a rather ingenious trick to fool his own mind. He said that whenever he was hearing the fans cheering for Roger Federer, he wanted to believe that they were cheering for him. The trick worked pretty well, with Novak winning a sensational match.
Novak Djokovic’s wife
Novak Djokovic’s wife, Jelena, is not with her husband in Wimbledon because of the restrictions. Nevertheless, she is quite active on social media supporting Novak in showing that he also has the love of the local crowd. Jelena posted a nice video of Novak cheered by the fans.
This final will be very meaningful for Novak Djokovic, who can tie his Grand Slam tally with Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, who have conquered already 20 majors.
