Novak Djokovic has been told his level now trails Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner in a brutal reality check ahead of his Wimbledon campaign. It is widely accepted that the Championships present the Serb’s best opportunity to claim a coveted 25th Grand Slam title.

Novak Djokovic has been warned he is ‘not at the level’ of two Wimbledon rivals as he chases a record-breaking 25th Grand Slam. Djokovic, 38, is hoping to win his eighth Wimbledon title and the 25th major of his remarkable career. He faces Alexandre Muller in his first-round clash on Tuesday.

For Novak Djokovic, winning Wimbledon for an eighth time would be his record-extending 25th major. At age 38, the Serbian knows his singles tennis days are numbered. Djokovic touched on retirement earlier this month with the Grand Slam on grass looming and was asked again about the possibility of stepping away prior to his opening-round match in London next week.
