Novak Djokovic consistently explores unconventional techniques unfamiliar to most in an effort to maintain his physique and enhance his athletic potential.
If you recall, during the previous French Open, the Serbian champion wore a red button beneath his t-shirt that could emit therapeutic light wavelengths; a topic that has resurfaced ahead of the Australian Open 2025.
Nole is set to compete in the first round against American Nishesh Basavareddy: just days prior, the 24-time Slam champion detailed the attributes of this treatment, as even on the eve of the Happy Slam – this time – a green button was apparent.
Nole clarified that the technique was developed by a Serbian physician – who is also an engineer – specifically for his needs.
“It’s a power disk that generates an electromagnetic field around it.” When you apply it to a specific area of your body, such as when experiencing stomach problems, which I frequently encounter when I feel anxious or tense before a game, or have indigestion, it generates warmth.
Subsequently, it begins to enhance metabolic processes or alleviate inflammation in specific areas of the body. I possess many of them and I always keep them with me. When I travel by airplane, I place it on my head or in another spot. “I’m not meant to apply it to body areas for prolonged periods, but it does its work in about 20-30 minutes,” he elaborated during an extensive interview with GQ.
In the same interview with GQ Italia, Nole aimed to clarify his comments regarding Jannik Sinner and address any criticism.
“I noticed on social media that there seemed to be some drama or issue, as if I had shamed him or deliberately expressed disdain for him.” It’s absurd. It was one of those quizzes that require you to come up with something in an instant. The name of Sinner popped into my mind, and I envisioned him skiing, as I had seen him ski in a certain place. Additionally, he and I frequently discuss skiing and our plans to ski together.
That’s why I mentioned skiing, not due to a lack of respect for his achievements in tennis, quite the opposite. It’s evident that his dominating performance merits all the accolades, both for his playing style and the quality of play. He possesses all the traits I’ve noted in others, and now it seems that people are portraying me as if I disdain him. “That’s just ridiculous,” he clarified.
