Holger Rohn lost to Novak Djokovic after stunning results in the ATP rankings

Novak Djokovic has been impressing the world of tennis year after year, with the Serb on Monday setting the record for the longest number of weeks at the top of the ATP rankings with 378 weeks.

The Serb was praised by several important people in the world of tennis, as well as colleagues on the circuit.

The last was Holger Rune (10), an athlete trained by Frenchman Patrick Muratoglu.

The Dane reached the 1/8 finals of the tournament in Acapulco on Tuesday, defeating the American Ben Shelton (41 ATP) in 3 sets, and spoke about the world leader, among other things.

“It’s something really incredible that he has continued to play for so long. The level he has shown over the years is extraordinary. The fact that he was able to win the Australian Open and almost every tournament he plays at his age is an inspiration to all of us.” – said Holger Roon.
