Novak Djokovic once again demonstrated the huge admiration he feels for Serena Williams with some emotional statements dedicated to the American, whom he praised both for her legacy and for her return to the courts after becoming a mother and staying away from professional tennis for several years.

The Serbian, who knows firsthand what it means to stay at the top for so many years, wanted to highlight the effort that one of the greatest legends in sports history is making and asked fans to enjoy each of her appearances on the court.

"Let's enjoy and celebrate who she is, what she has achieved, what she is doing now, after having two children and after being away from professional tennis for so many years. It's a gift for us, for anyone who loves tennis, for anyone who loves sports, for anyone who admires Serena and her legacy. And whatever happens, no matter if she wins or loses. It's already epic. That's what I personally told her at Wimbledon. And that's what I really feel in my heart."

Novak Djokovic values Serena Williams' return

Djokovic also explained that he perfectly understands the challenge of continuing to compete at the highest level after having practically achieved all possible major goals, a situation with which he identifies. "I want her to feel happy and joyful on the court, because, in a way, to some extent, I know how it feels, to keep trying at your best at that age when you have already achieved everything you can. But just watching her on the court is already a spectacle for the eyes."

The words of the Serbian champion reflect the immense respect that exists between two of the most important figures in the history of tennis. Beyond the titles and records, Djokovic wanted to emphasize the impact that Serena Williams continues to have in sports and the privilege for fans to see her compete once again.
