Yes — that quote is indeed attributed to Novak Djokovic, the Serbian professional tennis player and multiple Grand Slam champion.

“I don't think there has been enough communication between the players and the tournaments. In one sense it's just as much the players' fault.

Context and Meaning

Djokovic made remarks like this in interviews discussing player representation and communication within professional tennis, particularly regarding the ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) and tournament organizers.

The quote reflects Djokovic’s leadership mindset — urging players to be proactive, organized, and vocal about their interests and welfare, rather than complacent. It ties into his broader efforts to improve player rights, scheduling fairness, and decision-making transparency in the sport.
