Djokovic: "I've lost words for what this tournament and what this trophy means to me"

It is about the number of matches for the trophy at the biggest tournaments in the white sport.
The Serbian ace stood out on the all-time list, as this is his 32nd Grand Slam final in his career.
He is followed by Roger Federer with 31, as well as Rafael Nadal, who played in the Grand Slam final 29 times.

The competition at Wimbledon starts on Monday, and the matches of the first round, among others, will be played by five Serbian tennis players, including the defending champion Novak Djokovic.

Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal headline the title chase at Wimbledon where eight-time champion Roger Federer, the world's top two players as well as valuable ranking points will all be missing.

Djokovic is bidding for a seventh title at the All England Club to move level with U.S. great Pete Sampras.

The ATP recently punished Wimbledon for sanctions against the Russians and deprived them of the right to award ATP and WTA points.
Due to that, the participation of many tennis players was questioned, but Novak confirmed that he is not one of them.

True, he was defeated by 19-year-old Carlos Alcaraz, but it was a great match in which the younger tennis player had more strength and nerves in the tied finish of the match.
Madrid, in general, was a big step forward for Novak after Belgrade, especially in terms of fitness and level of play, and after the match with Alkaraz, he was not too disappointed.

He defeated the younger countryman after the turnaround, and his potential rival in the semifinals will be the winner of the duel between Khachanov and Monteiro.
