Novak Djokovic says he ‘emotionally collapsed’ after Australian Open win
For almost two decades, we have become accustomed to Novak Djokovic winning grand slams. But seeing the world No. 1 sobbing on the floor as he celebrated his Australian Open victory with his family and team was a first. He would later say he had “emotionally collapsed.” The straight sets win over Stefanos Tsitsipas in Melbourne on Sunday had historical significance.
Yeah, he was not feeling his best, let’s say, even though he was very happy to hug me and of course with everything. “I could see that he’s a bit sad. Look, it is what it is. I think in the end also what he told me is that it’s important that I feel good on the court, I win the match, and he’s here for me. “If it’s going to be better for me as the outcome of the match so that he’s not in the box, then so be it. That was the whole conversation.
