He was added to the professional staff during Goran Ivani\u0161evi\u0107&#8217;s era, who vouched for him as an excellent expert and analyst and helped \u0110okovi\u0107 achieve great success. Now he wants to capitalize on that with the 25th Grand Slam title. Perhaps already in Paris? Or later at Wimbledon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Novak added Bo\u0161njakovi\u0107 just before Roland Garros last season as the head coach, and since then he has been in the team with various roles, although he has had a close collaboration with Novak for years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bo\u0161njakovi\u0107 was a coach at Novak \u0110okovi\u0107&#8217;s academy for years, and at one point he was also the head coach in charge of working with younger generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CoPAlrgA8v5\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

This made Novak&#8217;s preparation for matches even faster and easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I haven&#8217;t confirmed since parting ways with Goran that I have a permanent coach, I said that Nenad is here temporarily to help me as a friend and mentor. Someone who is important in my life and whom I have known for many years. The team you saw here will be there, Boris Bo\u0161njakovi\u0107 is coming, who is part of my, let&#8217;s call it, technical team, when it comes to the analysis of tennis matches and my game. He worked as the head coach at the Novak tennis center. We have been collaborating for a long time. He has arrived and will be with me in that role of tennis coach and someone who works with me on analysis of both opponents and tactical preparation. That is the plan for now. I don&#8217;t have a longer-term plan than that,&#8221; said the Serbian ace, who confirmed that he has not yet planned all the details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bo\u0161njakovi\u0107 became a professional in 1997, but his best place on the ATP list was 740th. However, since then he has constantly improved and worked with big names from whom he absorbed knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I have over 20 years of experience in the tennis industry, I had the privilege to learn and collaborate with the biggest names in this sport such as Roy Emerson, Nikola Pili\u0107, Ricardo Gonz\u00e1lez, Novak \u0110okovi\u0107, Marijan Vajda, Goran Ivani\u0161evi\u0107. They all taught me a lot. My ultimate goal is to be more than a coach, to be a mentor and a source of inspiration for others who love this game as much as I do,&#8221; explained Boris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boris has thus completed the team which already includes Miljan Amanovi\u0107, physiotherapist, then Gebhard Phil-Gritsch who will again perform the role of fitness coach, and Steven Sassine Chachoyan, an Australian chiropractor who plays an important role in the recovery process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, Bo\u0161njakovi\u0107 will now have a key role when it comes to tennis tactics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">MORE TOPICS:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/historical-success-of-serbian-high-school-students-they-won-4-medals-at-the-international-chemistry-olympiad-in-brazil-photo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">HISTORICAL SUCCESS OF SERBIAN HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS: They won 4 medals at the International Chemistry Olympiad in Brazil!
