Michael Jordan: French veteran Richard Gasquet has drawn comparisons between the Serbian tennis star Novak Djokovic and NBA legend Michael Jordan, highlighting their unparalleled achievements well into their thirties.

Gasquet, himself a seasoned player at 37, expressed his astonishment at Djokovic's ability to maintain his elite level of play even as he approaches his late thirties. Drawing parallels to Jordan, who defied age and continued to excel in basketball. Gasquet marvels at Djokovic's ability to win Grand Slam titles at almost 37 years, a feat rarely witnessed in the sporting world.

“Have we ever experienced this in sport, apart from perhaps Jordan? Lionel Messi plays in Miami, the others in Saudi Arabia, he is world No. 1... I can't explain how a guy like that is so strong at that age. At 37-38 years old, normally you are not as good as at 25. I never thought I'd be playing the year I turned 38. Unimaginable,” said Gasquet as quoted by Eurosport.
