Novak Djokovic began expressing a heartfelt thought about returning to the semifinals at the All England Club — “It means the world to me,” he was saying, “that I’m still able, at 38, to play (in the) final stages of Wimbledon” — when the Centre Court crowd interrupted with yelling and applause.
“Thank you for cheering for my age. I really appreciate it. That’s beautiful. Makes me feel very young,” he said with a smile. “Another thing that makes me feel very young is competing with youngsters.”
