Novak Djokovic’s current season has been nothing short of remarkable. Besides the 19-match long win streak and a record eighth year-end with the world No. 1 ranking, the legend added another year of absolute excellence to his portfolio. While the Serbinator keeps on climbing the ladder to unmatchable success, tennis legends shift their attention towards him to calculate the main reason behind his consistent uptrend form.
In a recent interview, former tennis star Jim Courier praised Djokovic’s thoughtful scheduling decisions, counting him in as the “best example,” of effectively managing a player’s workload. Keeping in view the Serbian tennis maestro’s participation in only 12 tournaments this year, the 53-year-old mentioned, “I’ve marveled at this. The generations that have come since my generation and the way that they’ve managed their schedules, especially the very top players, so much better. Federer being the best example of that. Now, you’ve seen Djokovic play so few tournaments this year, you know, basically hasn’t played much at all since Wimbledon, hasn’t lost since Wimbledon, but he’s the one guy that is fresh and ready, and he’s playing like it.”
Djokovic’s strategic approach, reflecting the excellence of none other than the Swiss legend Roger Federer, not only maintains his dominant form on the court but also proves to be the reason behind his longevity and consistent success. According to tennis legend Jim Courier, the Serbian tennis player’s success this year can be attributed to his consistent schedule.

In an amazing season that was full of more triumphs and some setbacks, Novak Djokovic’s strategic excellence and unmatched skills kept him on top. Despite facing challenges like missing the Indian Wells and Miami Open due to COVID-19 vaccination guidelines, the Serbian tennis maestro still managed to keep his graph upward, winning three out of four major titles this year, including the Australian Open, French Open, and the US Open.
Novak Djokovic says 2023 wasn’t his best season ever, but it’s one of his best:
“The fact that I’ve won 3 out of 4 Slams & played a final in the 4th and it’s still not the best year of my life, it’s quite nice to have that kind of situation.”
