The whole world is delighted with the best Serbian and world tennis player, Novak Djokovic. So did the Spanish writer Juan Manuel Prada Blanco, who published a text dedicated to the Serbian ace.
“A year after becoming a legend, Novak Djokovic has become the most successful tennis player in history. His biggest rival, although they are tied for the number of Grand Slams, has never won a single Masters Final . The fact that he reached the title in Australia casts an additional shine on justice. As the icing on the cake, the grand Satan himself Bill Gates was in the stands. In this way, all the pains of Djokovic were rewarded, who assumed the role of a universal scapegoat in front of a submissive and cowardly generation".
The Spaniards have no choice either – since Novak Djokovic won his 22nd Grand Slam on Sunday, they had to admit that he is the best player of all time.
As he further stated, Djokovic “showed that he has a head, heart and mind”. He was especially touched by the moment of emotional collapse of our tennis player.
“After taking advantage of his overwhelming victory, pointing to his head, his heart, Novak Djokovic looked up to the sky and thanked God. Then he hugged his friends and family and completely broke down in tears. But Djokovic did not imitate those “panty ironers” who cry in front of the cameras for any crap, he already avoided it so that there would not be various records of crying. In that big hug, everyone who suffered losses in the last few years, who was stigmatized by the media or mistreated was represented in any way, viewed with suspicion by friends and family… Thank you for every precious tear, Nole. Not one was accidentally shed.”
What Novak survived, Juan believes that no one else could. He showed how big he is and how strong he is.
“Every tennis fan knows that there has never been a player with such an imperial range and such a cat’s instinct as Djokovic. But to overcome such a fierce blow as he suffered a year ago in Australia, not to drown in despair and anger, he pointed to the head (strength), the heart (generosity) and balls. Djokovic was not only faced with rivals, but also with a hostile set of circumstances that could only be overcome with God’s help. No doubt he was helped by a stubborn character, forged in a terrible childhood, but also the greatest support came from above. Djokovic knows it well, and so do all those who cried with him,” the text continues.
At the very end of the text, he wondered how it was possible that no one was thinking about the fact that Djokovic was winning back-to-back against tennis players 10 and even 15 years younger.
“It is surprising that the mass of people do not ask (or dare not) how a 35-year-old tennis player wins consecutive matches in three sets, one after another, against rivals who are ten or 15 years younger than him, showing speed, reactions and physical superiority . This is the same reason why a fat man like me writes better than all other writers in Spain. God who sees us, rewards us in the dark”, concluded the Spanish writer in his emotional text.
