a sense of bookends, for a career that has marked most of my life culturally and has been rounded off perfectly. i remember age 13 standing in the westway sports centre hearing the adults discussing how novak was just 3rd when ana and jelena were top 2 in the women’s game lol

this was the hardest match i’ve ever had to watch, especially cos we all expected him to lose it going in, and then it going into 3h over 2 sets

it’s the sense of an ending when you complete *everything* in a career and there’d been one thing missing for so long [1/5] https://twitter.com/DjokerNole/status/1820820641114669544

novak is one of my idols in how he carries the hopes of my country and his thoroughly based respect of his own principles, which mostly match my own in terms of collectivism

i don’t have much in my life, and we serbs 🇷🇸 rly don’t have much, but we do have this

plus it really was such a banger match to complete the career with, cos i have since federer in 2012 been questioning if athletes will forever fall off, yet each time it looks like nole will, 7 months into a dead season, he comes back with a performance matching his peak

ovim se saosećam, ovim se radujem, i ovo me nosi kao jedan moj uspeh. uspeh koji je svršen, koji me ispuni, i koji je vredeo doživeti. bravo nole 🐐 [5/5]
