Asked about conservatism within tennis, Novak Djokovic, at a press conference, expressed a somewhat confusing idea and, obviously, it was not a joke.

“I think we should try to get closer to young people and get them involved. I want to see a little more entertainment. For example, why not consider doing something between sets like the Super Bowl or the NBA? When there's a downtime, they bring in dancers and this and that. I would have no problem with that. Good dancers, you know, there for a few more minutes of break so I can relax and think about something else (smile). I think it would bring more fun and entertainment to tennis, which is quite traditional and perhaps conservative in some ways. »
