Returning World No. 1 Novak Djokovic (Serbia) has reiterated his desire to compete in next year’s Paris Olympics. “If I qualify for the Olympics, I will have a tight schedule next year, but the Olympics is one of the most important events in sports history. It’s very honorable to represent your country,” he said on Thursday, Reuters reported.메이저사이트

The 36-year-old Djokovic won his 24th career Grand Slam title at this year’s U.S. Open, tied for the most by a man or woman, after defeating Daniil Medvedev (RUS). However, his best Olympic result was a bronze medal in Beijing 2008. At London 2012, Rio 2016, and Tokyo 2020, he finished with bronze. “Playing in the Olympics is my goal now,” Djokovic said. I want to play and I want to be fully prepared, both physically and mentally,” he said.

If Djokovic wins gold in Paris, he will complete a career golden slam.
