In press conference after his three-set loss to Roberto Bautista Agut in Doha, was asked what his goal for this months Australian Open. , Djokovic replied to the journalist who asked him the question.
Why, do you think after this week I dont deserve to be contender for trophy? You said even after this week. I dont understand that comment. Commenting on his long run in Doha, Djokovic added: It was a tough tournament for me, considering the amount of matches I played, both singles and doubles.
Playing with my brother is a pleasure but also you care a lot. I care playing with him more than with anybody else, so thats why it took a lot out of me emotionally. I dont think it affected me negatively too much prior to this match.
As I said, I was very close to winning the match. A few points decided the winner. He was the one. Bautista Agut, who won the title in Doha after upsetting Djokovic in the semi-finals, was happy and pleased with the off-season he had had: I think the experience during the years makes you do better work every year.
I think my coach and my coaches and me handle it well. I had a very good pre-season. I had almost two months at home. It is refreshing for us and also for me after ten months traveling around the world and I start very good the season because I really like these conditions and its good for my tennis.
