The 24-time Grand Slam champion defeated Jannik Sinner in the ATP Finals and displayed his clear dominance on the tennis court. During the post-match press conference, the Serb was asked about his goal for next year, as this year he was able to win four of the five most important tournaments, cementing his name in history. Djokovic highlighted how next year, apart from the four Grand Slam titles, which are also Olympic, he can add to his name.

He said, “Well, you can win four slams and Olympic gold (smiling). Let’s see. I mean, I have always the highest ambitions and goals. That’s not going to be different for the next year, that’s for sure. The drive that I have is still there. My body has been serving me well, listening to me well. I have a great team of people around me.”

Along with that, he clearly mentioned how the goals for next year are also the same as what they were this year, as his body is serving him well. The 36-year-old tennis star is driven to win gold this time around when he competes in the Olympics in Paris next year, representing his native country. Subsequently, he also stated how the environment around him and the motivation there to keep going made things nice and warm on the competitive front.

In a statement to ATP Media after winning the Paris Masters, he revealed his plans for the rest of the season. He said, “For me, the biggest goal right now is to end the season as the No. 1 player in the world, so hopefully I can clinch it. I need one win, so hopefully that happens.”

Fortunately, after winning the first round against Holger Rune in Turin, he achieved his biggest goal and made sure to end this year’s biggest dream of being world number one. This is the 8th year-end number-one ranking for the Serb, and along with that, he also created history by putting Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal behind. He became the only player who has ended the season eight times as the world number one but has achieved glory only five times.
