It is clear that Novak Djokovic is not arriving as one of the main favorites for the Wimbledon 2025 title, but no one really dares to rule out the Serbian. His recent semifinal in Paris serves as a display of the incredible level he can reach on the courts, as well as his recent finals in London.

The current world number 5 spoke at the Wimbledon 2025 Media Day about his chances in the third Grand Slam, whether it is his last dance or not, and also about the possibility of obtaining a major trophy in the short term to add to his collection, and confessed what his great desire is.

His desire

"I am not sure if it is my 'last dance'. My wish is to play several more years. I would love to be physically healthy and also mentally motivated to continue playing at the highest level. That is the goal, but at this point, you never know. I agree that Wimbledon could be the best opportunity given the results I have had, how I feel, and how I play here," confessed the Serbian.

"In the last six editions, I have reached six finals. I have played very well here; perhaps it has been the most consistent Grand Slam for me in the last 10 years. When I come here, I feel more inspired to offer the best tennis. We all know the tradition, heritage, and culture of this wonderful tournament, which has been preserved for so many years. It is impressive every time you enter this venue. You feel that beautiful tradition."

His current moment

"I have played matches recently at the highest level. That motivates me to continue. On clay, I probably have fewer chances to win than on grass. Physically, I am fine, and technically, I think so too, from what I have seen in training."

His ranking pursuit

"Now it is slightly different for me in the sense that I no longer chase ranking in that way. I try to play the best tennis in the Grand Slams and win Grand Slams. That has not changed. It remains the same. Although my level of tennis has been fluctuating much more than during most of my career, if you look at the last year and a half, I have also been quite volatile with my results. In Grand Slams, it remains quite consistent."
