Novak Djokovic’s superfan, Pavvy G, has been making waves on social media with his constant jabs at American tennis legend Andy Roddick. The two have built quite a rivalry online, with Pavvy G accusing Roddick of being biased against Djokovic. This feud has been ongoing for some time now, and it has not gone unnoticed by the tennis community.
Pavvy G, whose real name is Pavle Grbovic, has been a vocal supporter of Djokovic for years. He has gained a large following on social media, where he often posts about his favorite player and takes shots at other players who he believes are not giving Djokovic the credit he deserves. However, his most frequent target has been Roddick.
Roddick, who retired from professional tennis in 2012, has been working as a commentator for various tennis events. He has been known to be critical of Djokovic’s playing style and has not shied away from expressing his opinions on the Serbian player. This has not gone down well with Pavvy G, who has been quick to call out Roddick on social media.
The tension between the two reached a new level when Roddick made a comment about Djokovic’s infamous disqualification from the US Open last year. In an interview, Roddick stated, “I know Novak is not a bad guy, but he has a habit of making bad decisions in big moments.” This comment did not sit well with Pavvy G, who took to Twitter to express his displeasure and even went as far as calling Roddick a “hater.”
This incident sparked a series of back-and-forth exchanges between the two on social media, with Pavvy G constantly trying to prove his point and Roddick defending his opinions. However, things took an interesting turn when a stat emerged that showed Roddick had a better head-to-head record against Djokovic than any other player. This stat quickly went viral, and tennis fans were quick to mock Pavvy G for his constant support of Djokovic.
The stat showed that Roddick had a 5-2 record against Djokovic, with all of their matches taking place between 2008 and 2010. This was during the peak of Roddick’s career, while Djokovic was still establishing himself as a top player. The fact that Roddick had a better record against Djokovic than players like Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, who are considered to be Djokovic’s biggest rivals, was a surprising revelation.
Tennis fans wasted no time in poking fun at Pavvy G, with many calling him Roddick’s biggest supporter now. Some even went as far as creating memes and jokes about the situation, with one fan tweeting, “Pavvy G’s worst nightmare has come true. He has been supporting Roddick all along without even realizing it.”
This incident has once again brought to light the intense rivalry between Djokovic and Roddick, albeit in a more light-hearted manner. It also shows the power of social media and how quickly things can turn around in the world of tennis. What started as a feud between two individuals has now become a topic of discussion among tennis fans worldwide.
Reflecting on the backlash he received from Djokovic’s fans, Roddick once said, “I know I have a lot of Djokovic fans who hate me, but I have to say, this is the most support I have ever received from them.” This statement shows that even though there may be differences between players and their fans, at the end of the day, it is all about the love for the sport.
In the midst of all the banter and jokes, it is important to remember that both Djokovic and Roddick are exceptional players who have made significant contributions to the world of tennis. Djokovic, with his 18 Grand Slam titles and record-breaking achievements, has solidified his place as one of the greatest players of all time. On the other hand, Roddick’s powerful serve and aggressive playing style have earned him a spot in the Tennis Hall of Fame.
As the tennis world eagerly awaits the return of the sport after the pandemic, it is heartening to see that even in the midst of a rivalry, there is room for humor and light-hearted banter. The Djokovic
