John McEnroe made clear his point of view regarding Novak Djokovic's opportunities at Wimbledon 2025: "Wimbledon is Novak's best chance to win another Slam, absolutely. He understands the nuances of this court better than anyone else," said the American to the BBC, as reported by Tennis365. "Only Alcaraz, with his best tennis, has found a way to unsettle him and show how human he is. Perhaps he's putting more pressure on himself because he wants to break all the existing records and reach 25."

That Novak Djokovic is in the final stages of his career is a fact. But it remains to be seen when and where he would decide to retire. So far, the Serbian has not spoken directly about it, but John McEnroe shared his prediction on ESPN microphones: "In a way, it wouldn't surprise me if he stopped. But I would be surprised if he tried to continue for another year. That would be my bet. He has been the world's third-best player this year. That's what it's been," stated the former American player.

There are many doubts that arise from that resounding defeat of Novak Djokovic against Jannik Sinner at Wimbledon 2025. This was John McEnroe's reflection on the matter, as reported by Tennis365: "It's the first time I look at him and think: 'I'm not sure he's going to come back.' I don't know if he can accept being one or two steps below these guys (Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz). Finally, he has joined the multitude of veteran champions who realize that the best has already passed and they have to accept it."

It's the million-dollar question that few dare to answer. Without giving an exact date, John McEnroe weighed in on the uncertainty of when Novak Djokovic will retire: "When will he stop playing? At the moment he thinks he can't win a Grand Slam, I suppose. It's difficult with him, he has practically broken all the records, so if he were to break them, I guess that would be the perfect time to stop. He has already said that he doesn't care about being number 1 at the end of the year; he held that position for eight years. Now his goal is to win Grand Slams," he told the BBC, as reported by Tennis365.

Neither Carlos Alcaraz, nor Jack Draper, nor Frances Tiafoe, nor Emma Raducanu, nor Katie Boulter, nor Grigor Dimitrov. None of them could hold back their laughter when they heard the questions from an imitator, Josh Berry, who mimicked the voices of Rafael Nadal, Andy Murray, or John McEnroe. If the imitations weren't enough, the surreal questions they were asked didn't help to take the interview seriously, which was filled with laughter.

The one saying this is no ordinary person. The very John McEnroe expressed this bold idea in the lead-up to the 2025 Roland Garros final, praising the virtues of Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz. So much so, that he believes it is very feasible that both the Italian and the Spanish player would be favorites in a match against the best version of Rafael Nadal at Roland Garros.
"They would be favourite to beat Nadal at his best!"

John McEnroe believes you could make an argument for Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz beating Rafa Nadal at his best on clay.
Do you agree? 🤔#RolandGarros pic.twitter.com/YuhSghehF4

Jannik Sinner just keeps breaking records. After his victory against Novak Djokovic in the semifinals of Roland Garros, he will reach the final in Paris without having lost a single set throughout the tournament. Not only that, in his victory at the Australian Open, he only dropped one set against Schoolkate and Holger Rune. In fact, since losing a set to the Dane, he has won a total of 29 consecutive sets in Grand Slams, matching the streak of Rafael Nadal in 2017 and that of Djokovic in 2023. Ahead of him are still the 35 sets of John McEnroe in 1984, the 35 of Nadal between 2020 and 2021, and the 36 of Roger Federer between 2006 and 2007.
