Former tennis star Andrea Petkovic has shared her thoughts on Novak Djokovic’s priorities for the 2025 season, predicting that the Serbian legend will focus heavily on the Australian Open and Wimbledon. According to Petkovic, these two Grand Slam tournaments remain pivotal for Djokovic as he continues to chase more records and solidify his place in tennis history.
Djokovic, who has already claimed an unmatched number of Australian Open titles, views the Melbourne tournament as his most successful hunting ground. Petkovic believes the Serbian ace will put extra emphasis on winning it again, aiming to add yet another trophy to his already extraordinary collection. “Novak feels like the Australian Open is his home, and you can tell it gives him extra confidence when he plays there,” Petkovic remarked.
Similarly, Petkovic sees Wimbledon as another primary target for Djokovic. With his unparalleled record on grass courts and multiple Wimbledon titles under his belt, Djokovic will be aiming to extend his dominance at the prestigious event. “Wimbledon is where he plays some of his best tennis, and with his physical conditioning, he can keep winning there for a few more years,” Petkovic stated.
While Djokovic is expected to compete in all the major tournaments, Petkovic emphasized that the Australian Open and Wimbledon likely represent his best opportunities to continue making history. “Novak is smart about his scheduling, and I think he’ll strategically focus on these two Slams to stay at the top and add to his legacy.”
Petkovic’s comments highlight Djokovic’s ability to manage his career at this stage, selectively prioritizing events where he can maximize his chances of success. With both the Australian Open and Wimbledon being iconic stages in Djokovic’s career, his pursuit of further glory in 2025 seems set to revolve around these two pillars of his Grand Slam ambitions.
