Love match working for Novak

Armed with what Goran Ivanisevic calls a "Balkan mentality" and "positive arrogance", Novak Djokovic replaced the heartbreak of losing the French Open with the joy of hoisting the Wimbledon trophy in the space of just five weeks.

That "positive arrogance" has made Djokovic a formidable athlete who, rather than being distracted by the joys of married life and fatherhood, has become a human winning machine.

In fact, since the birth of his son, Stefan, last October, the world No 1 has lost only three of 61 matches and collected eight titles, including the Australian Open and Wimbledon.
