Most of the tennis stars are stuck at home and are taking up new avenues to keep their fans entertained.

Djokovic and Murray did the same with their joint Instagram session, and the World No.1 highlighted what he has been up to during the Covid-19 break:

I am learning what it means to be a father. What it means to be a husband, something I didn’t get a chance to do earlier.”

The 17-time Grand Slam has shared several videos of him with his family, and it seems he is having a proper chance to spend time with them.

A long tennis season

The season starts in January and goes on till mid-November. There is also a ton of travelling with players visiting several countries across continents.

Murray and Djokovic also spoke about who the GOAT of tennis could be. However, they could not come to a consensus on who it would be.

Both conceded that Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Djokovic all have their positives and negatives, and it was difficult to pinpoint who was the best.
