Novak Djokovic, a win from the Grand Slam & a record 21st major title, invoked Kobe Bryant, from when the Lakers had a commanding playoff series lead. "He said, ‘Why should I be happy right now? Job is not done," recalled Djokovic. "Probably millions of athletes and people around the world have been looking up to him, admiring him. Thats kind of an attitude I have. Job is not done. Excitement is there. Motivation is there, without a doubt. Probably more than ever. But I have one more to go."
