Novak Djokovic about playing in risky situations

When asked about what goes through his mind while playing with the odds against him, Djokovic said, “As negative and down you feel in yourself in those moments. I think even though as fake as it looks or sounds to you. It really gives you an effect and support if you are trying to find the right answer, positive affirmations and kind of reanimate yourself in a way.”

“So that’s what I have done. I have done after I lost two sets in Roland Garros against Tsitsipas and today it worked. It doesn’t always work. Yeah, just felt like I had to change something.” He added.
