Viktor Troicki, captain of the Serbian Davis Cup team, officially announced the call-up of the Serbian players who will travel to Chile for the first round of the team competition. Among them are Hamad Medjedovic, Dusan Lajovic, Ognjen Milic, and the twins Ivan and Matej Sabanov, but Novak Djokovic is not listed. The former player explained the reasons in statements collected by SportsKlub.
"It's an extremely inconvenient date for him. We all hope he performs well and goes far in the Australian Open. It wasn't realistic to expect him to fly to Chile from Melbourne immediately after the exhausting Grand Slam to change surfaces and be with us this time," Troicki confirms ahead of a tie that will take place between February 6 and 8. The winner will face Spain in the playoffs for a spot in the 2026 Davis Cup Finals next September.

Following the split between Carlos Alcaraz and Juan Carlos Ferrero, many other relationships that also thrived in the world of tennis have been remembered, each with its own peculiarities. One of them is the partnership of Novak Djokovic with Boris Becker, which lasted for three years. Andrea Petkovic shared an anecdote on a Tennis Channel podcast that her fellow countryman once confessed to her: "He told me so many things about his relationship with Novak, how he would call him at three in the morning and say, 'Boris, I was thinking about my right elbow when executing the approach shots, I think we should work on that.' And then Boris had to go at night, between three and eight in the morning, which is the first training session, with some proposals."

Just a few hours after Novak Djokovic announced his complete disassociation with the PTPA, it was the player association founded by the Serbian and Pospisil years ago, now led by Ahmad Nassar, who has decided to respond in more aggressive terms than expected. "We have been the target of defamation and intimidation campaigns through narratives aiming to discredit us, and a federal court has ordered these slanders to cease. We are working with players and legal team to assess options for combating this misinformation. The attacks from any player will not deter us from our mission," states the issued statement.

Novak Djokovic was one of the main promoters of the PTPA, the players' association that emerged years ago outside of the ATP and aimed to give more voice and influence to the tennis players. It started off strong but has been losing momentum, and the Serbian player explained on social media his decision to completely disassociate from it.
"After careful consideration, I have decided to step away completely from the PTPA. This decision comes after concerns about transparency, governance, and how my voice and image have been portrayed. I am proud of the vision that Vasek Pospisil and I had in creating it, empowering the players with more strength and independence. However, it has become clear that my values are no longer aligned with the current direction. I will continue to focus on my tennis, my family, and contribute to the sport in ways that reflect my principles and integrity. I wish the best to those involved, but this chapter is closed for me," he stated.

The prestigious Serbian journalist Sasa Ozmo is the one saying this, one of the people who has closely covered the entire career of Novak Djokovic in relation to the tennis player. In words gathered by Express, he gives an idea of how he believes the retirement process of his compatriot will unfold. "Knowing Novak, I don't think he will make an abrupt announcement saying he's leaving tennis; instead, he will organize a farewell tour to iconic places in his career and tournaments he has never attended. He won't do it a year in advance like Kobe Bryant, but he will play several events after announcing when he's leaving tennis," he explained.
