The 37-year-old is keen to keep his playing career going as long as possible, which will mean managing his workload in his advancing years. Djokovic has already taken something of a backseat in some competitions over the past few years, instead concentrating on the Grand Slam events.

Petchey knows all about Raducanu, having previously coached the tennis star. He admits that she can be 'stubborn' but believes the 'bumpy ride' can set her in good stead going forward, while also defending some of her decision-making. “I'm a big believer that you don't really make mistakes at Emma Raducanu’s age," he exclusively told GB News, via Bally Casino.
