Details about the training camp in Greece

While preparing for their respective tournaments, Sabalenka and Djokovic trained together in Greece, pushing each other to elevate their game. Speaking during her Wuhan Open campaign, Sabalenka shared insights into their competitive yet friendly sessions.

“I love Novak; he’s always willing to give me good advice. Training with him was great. He would shout when he won points against me, but I must say I beat him quite a few times, too,” she told Tennis365.

Sabalenka also posted a photo on social media, capturing a joyful moment with her partner, Djokovic, and his wife, Jelena, during their time in Greece.

“We went out to dinner together in Greece. Jelena is fantastic. We all had a great time together,” she said. The outing underscored the genuine friendship between Sabalenka and Djokovic, which extends beyond the tennis court.

Sabalenka also humorously claimed credit for Djokovic’s recent success. “I hope I was a good sparring partner; seeing his level in Shanghai, I’d say so. If he wins the title there, it will be thanks to me,” she expressed, referencing Djokovic’s strong performance at the Shanghai Masters.

Aryna Sabalenka defends Novak Djokovic’s legacy

Aryna Sabalenka has consistently been a vocal supporter of Novak Djokovic, especially when it comes to discussions about his career longevity.

Earlier this summer, she urged critics to ease the pressure on the 24-time Grand Slam champion. “You guys are trying to put as much pressure as you can on Novak. Leave him alone,” she said, laughing. “He’s fit. He’s strong. Mentally and physically, I think he’s ready to play another two or three years.”

She emphasized the importance of appreciating Djokovic while he’s still competing. “Imagine if he retired tomorrow, everyone is gonna be sad,” Sabalenka added. “Just leave Novak to be there, to fight, and to show his greatness and to inspire the next generation.”
