Ok, can you explain why he went 8 months without a tournament win? Losing several times to vastly inferior opponents and making lots of unforced errors?
Yes I can. He got off to a slow start following the Australian open only making the semi. He tuned up in a few smaller tournaments and then has obviously been hampered by a knee injury. (That’s where you insert some wild reference)And as he publicly stated at this stage of his career he is mostly focused on the grand slams, as such he was looking to peak when it counted. He looked poised for a deep run at the French Open but we know what transpired there. Incredibly, he came right back and made the final of Wimbledon, before ascending to a gold medal in Paris.
As far as unforced errors you’re actually statistically(I know I know statistics don’t count) wrong. He has less unforced errors this year than last. I’d also say that’s the key to his current success. Truly owning the tempo of the game and making others beat him. His courage in the Olympic final where he forced Carlos to make bad plays on returns truly was the defining moment that led him to victory. his willingness to crowd the net off the serve actually forced Carlos into making unforced errors. The fact of the matter isn’t that Novak is a god that can do no wrong. It’s that he forced a younger, faster, more athletic man to beat sound tennis. And the youth and talent couldn’t topple the experience and tactical acumen. This was a culmination of a lifetime of talent and tactics. And yes Novak is old. Yes I fully expect him to be gone by the end of next year. Heck he may never win another tournament. But that doesn’t even matter.
Because you vainly attempted to sully a man’s reputation because of your ideological beliefs. You were content to lie, misdirect, make outlandish assertions with no basis in reality(hey man it’s just my opinion), and deny reality. No one ever expected you to actually say mea culpa. Not a single person. You’re incapable of inward reflection. And this is a stupid thread with stupid trolls and none of it matters at the end. But you walked away looking the most pitiful of anyone here. That much I can guarantee. You have no integrity and that should be worn as a badge of shame.
Lol. Least likely. So they still get it (duh) but then you have to shoehorn in some random politics BS because your brain is broken. Anyway, thank you for showing that long COVID is still a thing and 'straight white cisgender males' do get it.
Brilliant analysis. If anything it proves my point that the Chokervic lovers are not sending their best.

First sentence: "slow start" I wonder why that was?
Second sentence: "knee injury" gee, I wonder what could have caused that
4th sentence: "we know what transpired" yes, yes, we do
5th sentence: "Incredibly he came back" and got hammered like an amateur in the final
Next paragraph: Embarrassing glazing of a man halfway around the world. You sound like teenage girl obsessed with a boy band.
All your evidence fits fully with an explanation of 8 months of long COVID. I appreciate you pulling it together for me.

I wasn’t around him to comment on his slow start. Any number of reasons avaliable here
Are you asking me to explain how injuries occur in sports? I’m confused.
Yes, we know what transpired. He pulled out of the tournament with…you guessed it…the knee injury we were just talking about.
Yes l! It’s pretty incredible to be in the Wimbledon final 25 days after surgery. That’s a fairly obvious statement.
This part is easy, it’s your crude personal insult section that you admonish others for doing.
And, finally, my evidence points to the GOAT sticking to his plan. Focusing on championships. Being ready when the time came and achieving the last personal goal to check off on a storied career. Facing adversity like a true champion. From having to bow out of the French open, and getting knee surgery to quickly back into the final at Wimbledon before beating the very same opponent in straight sets to proudly wear that gold medal! Bravo Novak!

You can just add one more line: "overcoming long-COVID" and the story is even better.
Lol. Desperate reaching now – just like quoting world rankings. Beating up on very low-tier players in early rounds inflates these numbers. It's clear you nor anyone else in this thread crying at me actually watches tennis.
There were “very low-tier players” in early rounds in 2024 and there were “very low-tier players” in early rounds in 2015.
Your lame argument falls apart more the more you post. Armstronglives was right about you.

lol. Substance.
If you followed the OFFICIAL covid thread (the one sub9 won by outlasting Harambro), you would know that evidence and substance are Harambro's weaknesses. For instance, you would ask 2600bro for evidence or facts and he would just shut down and try to change the subject. He could never defend his position.
Lies, strawmen and hyperbole. It's the Harambro Code.

Exactly and his winning % dropped despite being padded with trash players.

Everything you've mentioned: slow start, injuries, eventual recovery, is entirely consistent with 8 months of long COVID. I'm not sure what you're so averse to the idea.

You can make up any fantastical story you want to fit your narrative. It doesn’t really matter to me. You’ve provided no substance to either refute me or establish yourself. You’re just spinning yarn buddy. And tellingly, you didn’t mention anything about his tennis game in any of your replies since. Not a single word. You only stuck to your narrative. Nothing new and nothing of substance. The facts of the matter stand. And that’s a gold medal.

Try it out. You just might like it!
Every time you wade out of the short end of “I’m a famous scientist, I once held the mile record at Great Neck High School, and I demand your respect, damn it” and into a tennis pool, you get your a$s handed to you.
Isn’t it peculiar that Djokovic hasn’t tested positive for Covid since December 2021 when it was a big nothing burger? He had a flu in January during the Australian Open, which was going around and that several *vaccinated* players also got with diminished play. He didn’t test positive for Covid. He lost to a much younger, fresher Jannik Sinner in the semifinal, but you all act like he didn’t just lose to Sinner in two previous, recent matches before the Australian (he did). That he lost to Sinner again shouldn’t have come as a surprise.
Injuries come with age. Again, look at the ATP top 150 and tell me how many 37+ year olds are on there. You all act like Djokovic has won every match and every tourney he’s ever played in over the years, and anything less was long influenza. A soft tissue injury just HAS to be long Covid inflammation (pretty damn rare).
It’s not that none of us can’t entertain the possibility that “Long Covid” took Djokovic out. It’s that you can’t consider the possibility that it has nothing to do with Covid, speaking of subscribing to only one ideology. By the way, and I know this is a newsflash, but Djokovic isn’t going to open up as the favorite to win the US Open. So, you might as well tee up everyone’s expectations now that if he does anything else but win, you’re going to be on here incessantly bragging about how it must be Long Covid relapse. We all know what’s coming.
I have a friend suffering from Long Covid. This ain’t no long Covid. Douche.

So is it age? Or is it long COVID? Beating Alcaraz in Paris seems to imply it's not age. Ergo...
