During his on-court interview after his singles victory against Frances Tiafoe on Saturday, Novak Djokovic revisited the emotional farewell of Roger Federer. The Serb said that he became emotional when he saw Federer’s children crying. "I can speak on my own behalf, what got me the most emotional was when his children came up and I saw them tearing up. It was a beautiful moment," the Serb said. Djokovic further commended Federer’s wife and family for supporting the legend throughout his career. "It's very nice to see Roger's fans here in London, and of course the family, Mirka, kids, everyone who has been such an instrumental part of his life and career. I understand and empathize with Roger because I understand exactly what is necessary in order for you to be on the tour for such a long time. You wouldn't be able to do it without the support of the closest ones and he said it beautifully yesterday that his wife Mirka and the closest people in his life allowed him to be able to play on such an incredible level for so many years,” he added.
