Zverev said Djokovic will continue to be “one of the greatest players of all time” and that people should not question his legacy because of recent developments.
In response to a question on whether the medical exemption saga will change the public’s perception of Djokovic, the 24-year-old said that the Serb was considered one of the greatest because of his on-court achievements, adding that the controversy would not take away his Grand Slam titles and weeks spent at No. 1.
Djokovic’s saga, as well as other exciting events on the men’s and women’s professional tours, could be documented by Netflix in a series similar to F1’s Drive to Survive.
Zverev, on his part, reckons the move will help tennis gain more fans.
