Novak Djokovic has an almost obsessive dedication to being as good as he possibly can be on the tennis court and there are times when he is an almighty tennis God.

On the biggest stage Djokovic fights for every point like his life depends on it.

Djokovic says that he is always trying to improve his game, something which has brought his great success.

He is grateful that he is able to play at a very high level after so many years at the top.

“I think in the core of my motivation, it’s just a mentality of wanting always to be better than I was yesterday. So on a daily basis or kind of a short-term goal is to always try to improve every aspect of the game ’cause I always believe that there is something to work on.

“I think keeping that kind of a mindset also drives me and drives my team members to really take every tournament as a new challenge, biggest challenge we have in this moment. I feel like that kind of attitude got me to where I am in terms of achievements in my career.

“Of course, I’m grateful I’m still able to play on a high level at this age. Professionally I have goals. I have ambitions. It’s always the highest kind of goals. I’ve been fortunate to achieve pretty much every achievement that you can have as a professional tennis player. I think that kind of experience allows me to believe that I can always do it again and again.

“I still feel physically very good. Mentally I’m there, I’m present. As I said, I really love the game, I love the competition, I love to be challenged on the court by anybody.

“So there’s still that fire, flame burning.”
