Awkward moments on Centre Court! 🎾 Novak Djokovic found himself apologising to BBC interviewer Annabel Croft after his intense four-set win against Roman Safiullin at Wimbledon. The Serbian tennis star, aiming for another Wimbledon triumph, was handed a warning for his language during a tricky moment in the match. Speaking post-victory, Djokovic made light of his on-court outbursts and asked Croft if she could relate, reminiscing about her own professional tennis days.
In a moment filled with both humour and tension, Djokovic chatted about the mental game of tennis, saying, “Our mind wanders… whoever keeps it in the present moment is a winner.” Croft seemed momentarily caught off guard but joined in the laugh.
Djokovic praised Safiullin’s aggressive play, admitting it was a challenge to keep up but he was pleased to eventually find his rhythm. Looking ahead at this year’s Wimbledon campaign, he shared his mantra: “Survive to thrive” – here’s hoping for some thriving soon!
