I’ve never heard an athlete so eloquent, especially in a language that isn’t their native one. Amazing

What was incredible about Novak is he achieved everything he did with the crowd/audience nearly always against him. He rarely, if ever, had home advantage. This is a truth that not many people acknowledge that make his achievements even more amazing

Novak’s command of the English language is absolutely way better than some people who speak it as their first language!
