On that occasion, Srdjan Djokovic revealed what he advised Novak at the beginning of his career, but he also told an anecdote that took place on Mt. Kopaonik when Nole was only three years old.

"I told Novak that it is not enough just to listen to what the coach tells you, but you must also have self-initiative in order to be the best in the world. The difference between him and other tennis players is that he was at the time only a tennis player. He would be successful in whatever he does in the future. The rest were just tennis players," said Srdjan Djokovic and added:

"Novak has lived by order, work and discipline since he was six years old. He is already the best in the world, no matter what those experts from the West say. A story from Kopaonik, when he was three or four years old, speaks best about what Novak is like. My brother had a boutique store and gifted him a jacket, but Nole told him, 'What do you hope to sell if you are gifting stuff to me'?

By the way, Novak this week stepped into his 312nd week at the top of the ATP list, breaking a previous record held by Roger Federer, who managed 310 weeks.

Novak is currently taking a break and is recovering from an injury he picked up during the Australian Open, where he was triumphant, and he should return to the court in Miami.

Take a look at what Novak was like as a kid:
