Kevin Pietersen showered praise for Novak Djokovic after his Wimbledon 2023 final loss to Carlos Alcaraz

Novak Djokovic controversially refused to take the COVID-19 vaccine but dominated the ATP Tour during that phase. In 2021, he won three Grand Slam titles and finished runner-up in the other. He won another in 2022 and two more in 2023 to earn his record-equalling 23rd Grand Slam title.

In the same year, Djokovic reached the Wimbledon final in search of the record-breaking 24th Slam, but Carlos Alcaraz had other ideas. The Spaniard won his first Major by defeating the Serb in the final.

After the match, cricket legend Kevin Pietersen praised Djokovic for how fit he was at age 36.

"My takeaway from yesterday’s tennis should be, how does @DjokerNole keep his body so unbelievably fit, flexible & powerful at 36. It’s very rare and he must be doing something right. I wish I’d looked after my body during my playing days like he does…

There was incredible mental strength & resilience to not wanting the vaccine. This I know first hand as we had many discussions on this. He is so particular in what he eats/drinks," Pietersen wrote.

Djokovic had to wait just a few more months to win his 24th title at the US Open. He reached another final at Wimbledon last year, but Alcaraz defeated him again. Currentrly, the Serb is preparing to compete at the Monte-Carlo Masters to begin his clay court season in 2025.
