He singles out Djokovic’s experience at Wimbledon: “He’s already won there seven times… it’s not a reach to see him doing it again.”

Upside for Djokovic:

“He’s playing some of the best tennis he’s managed for some time.”
facebook.com🏅 Why it’s notable
Legend endorses a legend: Connors, himself a two-time Wimbledon champ, still rates Djokovic as a top contender—even at 38—reinforcing “veteran vs. youth” narratives.
Balanced viewpoint: He praises Djokovic’s past but warns about the grind of tournament tennis at his age.
Context matters: Djokovic reached the French Open semis recently, showing strong form, and Wimbledon could be his chance to equal Federer’s eight SW19 titles.
