  • Djokovic happy to let the Wimbledon spotlight shine on others

    Djokovic happy to let the Wimbledon spotlight shine on others World No. 4 Novak Djokovic is happy to duck the Wimbledon spotlight as Roger Federer and Andy Murray take most of the current attention.

    "I'm very happy", was the Serb's assessment of his profile as what he calls the most prestigious of the four Grand Slams began.

    "I've been playing really well in the last two, three years", said the 2008 Australian Open champion who has twice reached Wimbledon semi-finals.

    "Obviously, people were talking about me, having won a Grand Slam in Australia, put myself in the position to be a candidate for a Grand Slam title in basically each Grand Slam I have played".

    But Djokovic wants to keep the attention to a minimum for as long as he can over the fortnight, hopefully getting on with his game. "Right now, Andy Murray is in the spotlight, and he deserves it".

    "He was playing fantastic tennis in last seven, eight months. And it's good. I mean, releases kind of a little bit of pressure off me so I can play relaxed on the court".
