'Djokovic wants more titles'

Tuesday, July 14 2015 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    Novak Djokovic discuses winning his third Wimbledon title, his chances at September's US Open and dancing to the Bee Gees' hit Night Fever with women's champion Serena Williams.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Novak Djokovic, 2015 Wimbledon champion: (on maintaining the hunger for success) 

    "Obviously as you go along and you realise your childhood dreams, which I did in 2011 winning Wimbledon and reaching the top spot in rankings. I had to find new ways of motivating myself. Today I find it easy to motivate myself with the people around me, my closest family, the team and many people that support me. I think that's also responsibility for me to keep going and bringing joy to myself and to these people. So as a 28 year old I feel like I have many years in front of me."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Novak Djokovic, 2015 Wimbledon champion: (on his prospects at the US Open)

    "If you look at the consistency of the results at the US Open, it's probably my best grand slam. I've been playing since my first US Open in the main draw I think, 2007 I played the first final and since then I've been reaching at least the semi-finals. That says something about my game, about my results there, but of course I haven't made that final step many times, only once in 2011, but you know. Going there with that thought in my mind, I like the surface, I like the conditions, I like playing the biggest stadium in sports. With all the big achievements this year behind me, I'm in a very good position to go far."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Novak Djokovic, 2015 Wimbledon champion: (on the song he chose for the dance with ladies' champion Serena Williams on Sunday) 

    "I was thinking more of a waltz or something, I would say something sophisticated. Blends into the environment, the beautiful hall and the dinner yesterday. Serena wanted to move a little bit more so we considered other options and 'Night Fever' came to light so you can imagine how that looked."
