Novak Djokovic‘s Humble Touch: Francisco Cerundolo Reveals the Real Story Behind the Legend
Francisco Cerundolo of Argentina has declared that Novak Djokovic is not a conceited individual.
Cerundolo is presently ranked 21st in the entire globe. He achieved his career-high ranking of World No. 19 in June 2023. He has now won two titles; the first one was won at the Eastbourne International competition in 2023. He won the Eastbourne final over Tommy Paul.
Cerundolo recently had an open discussion about a number of topics, including his opinion of Novak Djokovic, with Clank.media. He talked about the Serb’s humility and his on-court intelligence.
Every time I see Novak, he always says hello. I’d like to chat to him, but I’ve never sat down to do so. He doesn’t diminish you or act haughty towards you in any way. He’s aware of your performance as well as everyone else’s,” he remarked. (Verified)
The Argentinean went on to say that Djokovic is the best tennis player of all time.
“In terms of results, yes, it’s clear,” he stated.

The Serb became the first player to win 24 Grand Slam championships in the Open Era in 2023. He took home three major titles from the Australian, French, and US Opens.
In addition, the 36-year-old surpassed Steffi Graf’s record of 377 weeks at the top of the world rankings. He is the top-ranked ATP player right now, in the 403rd week of play.
Cerundolo has not yet faced the World No. 1 in a match while on tour.
