“And that’s the tragedy of Djokovic” – Chris Bowers reveals the significant facts about Novak Djokovic

Tennis Channel’s Podcast Inside-In hosted a great discussion between famous tennis journalist and writer Chris Bowers and Mitch Michals. Bowers spoke about his books on Federer and Djokovic’s biographies with a detailed discussion about his love for the sport tennis. However, what made the interview more exciting to the fans was Bowers prioritizing Djokovic’s book over Federer’s.

He said- “He is just a middle-class boy from an affluent background in Basel. His parents worked in chemical industries in Basel. Djokovic is a boy from a poor background but he has a modest surrounding and no history in tennis. It was the massive learning thing for the family. A background of real chaos I mean the economy at the time he was a teenager was really chaotic. When NATO bombled Belgrade he had to move his practice everyday.”

Chris Bowers expressed that the crucial political situation of Novak Djokovic’s upbringing made his journey more legendary. He added-“because they had to work on intelligence about, you know, what was likely to be bombed and what was probably going to be safe, much better story, and yet the Federer book sells tend to one better, which tells you something, if someone’s more popular, their story will sell even if it’s not as good as story as somebody who’s less popular. And that’s the tragedy of Djokovic, he is less understood. Because he’s not as popular.”
