Novak Djokovic is no stranger to Wimbledon’s Centre Court, winning the tournament seven times and now he’s taking on Italian and 22nd seed Flavio Cobolli in the quarter finals as he attempts to lift the famous trophy once more.

On Monday, BBC tennis commentator John McEnroe jokingly suggested the legend could “retire on the spot” if he played another set as badly as his opening one against Alex de Minaur in the fourth round, which he lost 6-1.

However, the Serbian stormed the game and previously stated that he believes he could win more Grand Slam titles in 2028, which might be his last year of eligibility.

The 38-year-old tennis player, who is married to Jelena Djokovic and has two children, Stefan and Tara, has won a whopping £138 million in prize money for singles and doubles competitions around the world during his career.

He has won 40 ATP 1000 titles, including the first two Grand Slam victories, and he is the only player to have won all ATP 1000 tennis tournaments twice to claim the career golden masters.

Novak’s net worth, however, is much higher, at £193 million. This includes significant brand acquisitions, including Sergio Tacchini’s ten-year sponsorship deal, which the player held until 2009.

He signed a five-year brand ambassador contract with Uniqlo in 2012, which was reportedly worth just under £7 million per year, and he ended his contract with Uniqlo in favor of Lacoste.

Mercedes-Benz and Seiko are also included in the list of famous brands associated with Djokovic. He generated an incredible £40 million in sponsorships alone between June 2018 and June 2019.
