I feel that I let the Spanish people down. I feel they were waiting for the gold medal,
This kind of supersedes everything that I imagined,
Well done, @DjokerNole, on winning the gold medal at #Paris2024.@carlosalcaraz put up a strong fight and obviously has a bright future ahead, but Djokovic had an ace up his sleeve whenever he was serving. That was the key to his success today, in my opinion. Alcaraz has what it takes, but to truly dominate for years on all surfaces, he’ll need to step up his serve!”
Everything [about this is special], but most of all it is my country,
I won the bronze in my first Olympic Games (2008) and ever since then failed to win the medal and played three out of four Olympic Games in semi-finals and couldn't overcome that obstacle,
Until today I thought that carrying the Serbian flag at the 2012 opening ceremony in London is the best feeling that an athlete could have,
I don't think I've ever played, maybe a few times in my life, such a high level for three hours for only two sets,
Olympic Games come every four years so the opportunity to win gold for your country is very rare and I knew the fact that I’m 37 and I don’t know how many more chances I would have,
Look, I still, I want to play in Los Angeles. I enjoy playing for my country in Olympic Games particularly and Davis Cup. It’s something that, being part of a team,
It was an incredible fight and I had to play my best tennis
I am a little bit disappointed but I'm going to leave the court with my head high,
In the difficult moments, he increased his level,
I'm telling myself always that I am enough, because I can be very self critical,
Of course I've won everything there is to win probably in my individual career, but winning the Davis Cup, and particularly a golden medal for an Olympic Games for Serbia at the age of 37, is unprecedented,
I put my heart, my soul, everything to win gold
Bringing the gold medal to Serbia, this is maybe the greatest sports achievement in my life,
I'm super grateful for the blessing to win a historic gold medal for my country, to complete the 'Golden Slam,' to complete all the records,
I'm overwhelmed with everything that I'm feeling right now,
It is painful to lose the way that I lost this match. I had my opportunities,
Experience made the difference today,
