According to former tennis player, Marion Bartoli, Novak Djokovic is an excellent pick to start when trying to build the perfect tennis athlete.
The flexibility and smoothness of movement on the court of the 24-time Grand Slam champion are only two of the numerous factors that, in Bartoli’s opinion, make him the ideal tennis player.
In a recent interview, Bartoli expressed her remarks about Djokovic and said: “If you will build the perfect tennis athlete you can’t have someone better than Novak. The flexibility, the smoothness, everything moves freely.”
The former Wimbledon winner believes that, based only on his Grand Slam performance, Novak Djokovic has been the best men’s singles player of the year. The Serb won the Australian Open, French Open, and US Open in 2023, making it three out of the four Grand Slams.
She further added: “I think we have to go deeper into the analysis and when you look at the season, there is one who won three Grand Slams and one who won one Grand Slam, it’s as simple as that. And one who played four Grand Slam finals and one who played one.”
