'It’s Good To Break The Curse': Novak Djokovic Pokes Fun At Roger Federer After Long-Awaited Win In His Presence During Wimbledon 2025; Video

Novak Djokovic brought a light-hearted moment to Centre Court following his hard-fought four-set win over Australia’s Alex de Minaur in the Wimbledon Round of 16. After dropping the opening set 1-6, the Serbian star stormed back to win 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 and secure his place in the quarterfinals.

But it wasn’t just the tennis that got the crowd buzzing. During his on-court interview, Djokovic made a cheeky reference to tennis legend Roger Federer, who was in attendance for the match. With a smile, Djokovic said, “It’s probably the first time he’s watched me and I’ve won the match. The last couple I lost. It’s good to break the curse.”

The crowd erupted with laughter and applause at the comment, highlighting the mutual respect and history shared between the two greats. Federer, who was seated in the Royal Box, acknowledged the moment with a smile and a nod.

Djokovic’s comment was a nod to his recent losses in front of Federer, adding a humorous twist to an otherwise intense afternoon on court. Now into his 16th Wimbledon quarterfinal, the seven-time champion looks in strong form as he continues his chase for a record-extending 25th Grand Slam title.
