Andre Agassi’s Wimbledon promise to Novak Djokovic

Andre Agassi may be considered one of the finest ever to have graced the tennis courts, but it seems his protege, Novak Djokovic, has found a flaw that went unseen all these years.

Djokovic uploaded a picture on his Instagram profile of himself and the 47-year-old Agassi stretching, with a typically tongue-in-cheek caption: “Flexibility test Andre promised that he'll touch the floor by the end of Wimbledon #goals #teamdjokovic.”

Currently ranked fourth in the world, Djokovic has been working with Agassi since this year's French Open as he hopes the eight-time Grand Slam winner’s wealth of experience rubs off on him in a bid to revitalise his flagging career.

At 30, Djokovic still has plenty of tennis left in him but after a disastrous 12-month period following his 2016 French Open triumph, in which he failed to lift a single major, many critics seem to have written off the Serbian’s chances of winning a 13th Slam.

Currently, Djokovic has been easing past opponents at the ongoing Wimbledon Championships and next faces Latvian Ernests Gulbis in the third-round.
