"You need to relax a little," the funny exchange between Djokovic and Sabalenka during a Wimbledon press conference
Between Sabalenka and Djokovic, the chemistry seems excellent. If the two players shared a humorous moment on the TNT Sports set at Roland-Garros, they may have done it again. Always on the lookout for the slightest joke, the two players don’t hesitate to tease each other when they cross paths at tennis tournaments, as was the case at Wimbledon.
Indeed, while the Belarusian was participating in the usual pre-tournament press conference, the Serbian, scheduled right after, interrupted her remarks—all to the laughter of the journalists present.
N.D.: Come on, let’s go, please! I’m waiting for you!
A.S.: Seriously (laughs), you see this, guys? Come here, we can chat! Let me ask you a question. How do you rate my level? Am I playing well?
N.D.: I think you have potential, you’re really talented. Great shots, great technique, but honestly, you lack intensity on the court. It’s too flat. You need to relax a little. (laughs)
A.S.: Before, this guy was my favorite player, but not anymore. (laughs)
