Novak Djokovic delivered a blend of humor and brilliance at Wimbledon 2025, advancing to his 16th quarterfinal with a four-set victory over Australia’s Alex de Minaur on July 7.

After losing the first set 1-6, the Serbian star battled back to win 6-4, 6-4, 6-4. The Centre Court crowd roared, but it was Djokovic’s playful dig at Roger Federer that sparked laughter. Spotting Federer in the Royal Box, Djokovic grinned during his interview, saying, “It’s probably the first time he’s watched me and I’ve won. The last couple I lost. It’s good to break the curse.”

The crowd erupted, and Federer, smiling, nodded in acknowledgment. The quip referenced Djokovic’s recent losses in Federer’s presence, adding a light-hearted moment to an intense match. Earlier, in his third-round clash against Miomir Kecmanovic, Djokovic produced a jaw-dropping rally, chasing a tough shot and firing a perfect backhand winner.
