I am so tired of the Djokovic clan.
ReplyDeleteAlso remember when Nole bitched about the British ballers having everything at their disposal? You don't get to bitch about the privileged when your family can afford to buy a tournament.
Actually, it's Amersfoort ;)
ReplyDeleteActually, it's not Nole's family who can afford to buy a tournament. Nole's parents are not exactly wealthy (owners of a smallish pizza & pancakes parlour). They struggled to put him through tennis academy and finance his junior career.
ReplyDeleteIt's Nole himself who managed to earn a couple of millions of dollars in the last couple of years, and is now investing in the sport in his country. And it's a joint venture with Nikola Pilic, former ATP player, now coach and owner of a highly successful tennis academy in Munich, which Nole attended as a kid.
No need to be tired of the Djokovic clan. Get tired of Nole & Nikki, if you must.
Will be more funny if the called the tournament...

Anon 7:17 thank you for correcting me. Tennis.com didn't elaborate they just said his family. I'm tired of the clan not for this but for other reasons.
ReplyDeletesara: i agree with you. they may not be buying the tourney themselves but they'll (meaning mostly daddy Srdjan) will be pulling the puppet strings.
