During his appearance before the accredited Serbian media at the 2025 Australian Open, the situation arose where Novak Djokovic was questioned about the boos he received from a significant portion of the people present at Rod Laver Arena when he retired against Zverev. The Balkan's response is noteworthy, as reported by TennisMajors.

"I don't know what to say. People came and paid for their tickets expecting to see a great match that they couldn't witness. From that perspective, I can understand them, I do everything possible to do so, at least. But I'm not sure they understand me or even want to. I know how my body works and what I have done for this tournament over the last 20 years. I prefer to remain silent to avoid saying something I might regret," he stated.
