Novak Djokovic is keen to study in the future
As Novak stated, an individual can wish to finish their education without being bothered about their age. He is interested in topics surrounding health and well-being. However, he wishes to study a course in ancient civilizations and archaeology. He is aware of courses being available online and with his packed schedule, that would be feasible.
The 2016 French Open champion added, “The topic that involves me most is that of health, a very broad field. But I also like studying ancient civilizations and archaeology. In this period I’m really trying to understand what can interest me the most. Today, then, you can do a lot online, which is perhaps the best method for me, both as a tennis player and as a dad.”
At the moment, like the other players, Novak Djokovic is focused on the second Grand Slam of the season, the Roland Garros. Although Rafael Nadal is tipped to lift the title, the Serbian ace has beaten Rafa on their many clay court meetings.
