Aryna Sabalenka expressed excitement over finding an aspect where she’s better than Novak Djokovic. Amid her title defense campaign at the ongoing 2025 Australian Open, she found a video where Djokovic attempted to copy a hilarious stunt the WTA star had done. Sabalenka didn’t just have a big laugh but also made a hilarious comment about the tennis GOAT’s lacking potential.
Aryna Sabalenka, during her AO 2024 campaign, gave fans a big laugh by performing a cheeky trick. In a short video clip, she was seen lifting her leg to kick the bottle off from her fitness coach Jason Stacy’s head. Novak Djokovic tried recreating the same stunt alongside hitting partner Carlos Gomez-Harrera but failed to stretch his leg.
Here’s the video of Djokovic’s attempt:
Sabalenka saw the funny side of the Serb’s failed attempt to replicate her move as she talked about her ‘better’ flexibility than the 24-time Grand Slam champion.
“I saw that! It was really funny to see! It’s good like my flexibility is better than Novak,” she said.
Here’s Sabalenka’s reaction to Djokovic attempting her move:
Both Sabalenka and Djokovic have reached the quarter-finals, chasing their respective third and 11th title at the tournament.
