Djokovic, after seeing Federer: "It was a very brief greeting, but it was very nice to have him close"
It was one of the images of Wimbledon 2025. Roger Federer, an eight-time champion of the tournament, sat in the royal box on Centre Court watching Novak Djokovic, a seven-time champion, play. After Djokovic's victory, they chatted: "We caught up very quickly. We greeted each other. He congratulated me and said it had been a great match. That was it. It was a very brief greeting, but it was very nice to have him nearby. Obviously, he is one of the greatest legends of our sport in the history of tennis. So it is always very special when he is in the stands. I'm glad to break the curse and win in front of him. It's a great relief," confessed the Belgrade native.
