Undoubtedly facing tennis players like Djokovic is not a mere thing! However, Jannik Sinner, Holder Rune, and Carlos Alcaraz proved it to be wrong. Apart from Sinner, the other two players didn’t stand a chance against the world’s number-one tennis star, they dropped a tremendously great fight against Djokovic. Now that even Djokovic is admitting the skills of these tennis stars, the truth is wide-open to the fans.

In a press conference, Djokovic said- “Carlos, Jannik, & Holger are the big three.. the next big three, if you want to call them. They are going to carry this sport.” Now receiving such a big complement from the Twenty-four times Grand Slam winner is not a small thing. This is so because none of these three players have crossed 30 and yet they are bombarded with compliments from veteran tennis players as well as stars like Djokovic.

Adding to his statement, Djokovic expressed something that truly made his fans more overwhelmed by this legend. He said- “ I will hang on for as long as I feel like hanging on, as long as I’m able to win against them on the big stage. Once they start to kick my butt, then I will consider probably having a little break or maybe a permanent break from professional tennis.”
