Novak Djokovic focused as he looks for eighth Wimbledon championship
Listen to Novak Djokovic’s opponents explain why he is as successful as he is – why he will begin his pursuit of a fifth consecutive and eighth overall Wimbledon championship on Monday; why he also will be attempting to claim an Open era-record 24th Grand Slam trophy over the coming fortnight on the All England Club’s grass courts – and they’ll offer plenty of answers.
“I try to visualize every single thing in my life and not only believe it, but really feel it with every cell in my body. And I just want to send a message out there to every young person: Be in the present moment; forget about what happened in the past; the future is something that is just going to happen,” Djokovic said. “But if you want a better future, you create it. Take the means in your hands. Believe it. Create it.
“Those two guys,” said Djokovic, who practised at Centre Court on Thursday, “were occupying my mind for the last 15 years quite a lot.” Entering the 2011 season, the so-called Big Three’s Slam standings looked like this: Federer with 16, Nadal with nine, Djokovic with one.
