Novak Djokovic suffered a tough defeat in the Wimbledon 2026 semi-finals against Jannik Sinner. However, the Serbian tennis player once again demonstrated that he is still at the top of his game with epic matches like the quarterfinal against Felix Auger-Aliassime, and his brother Marko shared an emotional message on Instagram to let the world know.

"I feel privileged to know you and to have you as a brother. With a big heart, strong character, generous and always willing to learn and improve, especially to be a better person. You are an inspiration to many and a role model for your children. Watching you play at the highest level, giving your all, having the chance to cheer you on and support you at almost 40 years old is truly incredible. Thank you for being my older brother and for all the love you give to me and my family. We love you!"

Djokovic, further away from the 25th Grand Slam

The reality is that the Serbian tennis player is finding it increasingly difficult to achieve his longed-for 25th Grand Slam. In the Australian Open, he did defeat Sinner to reach the final, but he ran into Carlos Alcaraz before lifting the trophy. At Roland Garros, and especially Wimbledon, he had a golden opportunity due to the absence of the Spanish player, but it has become evident that his physical condition is not the same.

Nevertheless, it is also worth highlighting what an example Novak is for the world, beyond sports. At 39 years old, he continues to compete head-to-head with anyone, with the same hunger as when he started, and with his family from the sidelines watching as he continues to accumulate reasons to be the greatest tennis player of all time and one of the best athletes ever seen.
