Even if Novak Djokovic has won Wimbledon on seven occasions, he does not have a fantastic relationship with the local crowd. Nevertheless, the Serbian legend has shown plenty of times that if the crowd is against him, he finds extra motivation to silence it.

During a recent interview with Tennis Majors, Novak revealed: “They are doing me a favor. The more they cheer against me, the better for me. They wake something in me that they perhaps don’t want to see – a winner.”

Then Djokovic admitted that he prefers it if the crowd is with him: “As a player, you want to have the majority of the crowd on your side. My wish is not to play in a hostile atmosphere. It turns out, though, that the crowd supports my opponent in most of the matches in my career.”
