Novak Djokovic has taken advantage of his brilliant run at Wimbledon to finally confirm the big news about Rafa Nadal. The Serbian has publicly confessed his desire that, once retired, he, Nadal, and Roger Federer sit down together to reflect on what they've meant to world tennis. With a genuine smile, Djokovic has expressed absolute happiness for what he has experienced alongside his two great rivals.
The moment came after his resounding victory over Daniel Evans. Courtside, Novak set aside the competitive tension to speak with emotion about what he hopes for in the future. Is the historic meeting between the three legends who have defined an unrepeatable era in tennis closer than ever?

Novak Djokovic finally confirms a meeting with Rafa Nadal and Roger Federer
After defeating Daniel Evans at Wimbledon without any trouble, Djokovic appeared relaxed in front of the microphones. Jokingly, he mentioned that he'd like to have "some margaritas" with Nadal and Federer in the future.
"I don't know why I said margaritas, because I've never tried one. It's not that I like that drink very much, but I guess it sounds good," he explained with a laugh, showing a more human and approachable side.
After that friendly nod, came the confession that has made headlines around the world. "I imagine that, especially the three of us, hopefully someday, in a more relaxed setting, we'll reflect on the rivalries and everything we've achieved and done for this sport," he said.
The statement says it all. It's not just about nostalgia, but a real willingness to close the cycle as what they are: legends with a shared history. For Novak Djokovic, the idea goes beyond symbolism.
"I think it'd be great for us, and I think for everyone else as well, to know that we met up...," he added with a tone that showed sincerity and restrained emotion. Many have interpreted those words as an unmistakable sign of respect toward Rafa Nadal, whom he considers an indispensable part of that unrepeatable trio.
The 'Big 3' will meet to celebrate their legacy in tennis
For more than 15 years, Novak Djokovic, Rafa Nadal, and Roger Federer have starred in the most iconic rivalry in tennis history. With different styles, personalities, and cultures, they managed to capture the attention of millions of fans. Now, that fierce competition is turning into affection and mutual admiration that goes beyond the courts.
Novak Djokovic's statements aren't isolated. On other occasions, he has already shown his respect for Rafa Nadal, especially in these recent years marked by the Spaniard's injuries. The desire to seal history with a joint image is a way to pay tribute to the past, present, and future of tennis.

Moreover, the timing for sharing it isn't accidental: in the middle of competition, after a solid victory, on a stage like Wimbledon. Everything seems to indicate that Djokovic feels he's closer to that final chapter in which, perhaps without rackets in hand, the three can offer each other mutual recognition.
This intention to share a table and reflections with Rafa Nadal and Roger Federer isn't just symbolic. It represents a way to heal, to celebrate, to understand what they've experienced. The big news confirmed by Novak Djokovic is also a gesture of reconciliation with time and with the history of tennis.
