Novak Djokovic's wife Jelena took a subtle dig at Rafael Nadal in the lead-up to the 2022 Wimbledon final, inviting a lot of criticism from fans on social media. As the World No. 7 came into the clash against Nick Kyrgios, an encounter he eventually won 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, 7-6(3) to win his 21st Grand Slam title, he was in possession of a 38-match win-streak on Center Court.It was the longest win-streak in the history of the tournament, an unbeaten run that has now swollen to 39 after his exploits in the final. One of the 21-time Grand Slam champion's fan accounts on Twitter made use of the opportunity to take a shot at Rafael Nadal, writing that it was longer than any win-streak Nadal has had on Court Philippe-Chatrier at the French Open.Reggie🐺🐊@Reggie61823972Djokovic's current 37 match winning streak at Wimbledon on Centre Court is longer than any winning streak Nadal has on Court Phillippe-Chatrier!!🤯Its also the longest winning streak on Centre Court at Wimbledon in history!!🤯🤯1140158Djokovic's current 37 match winning streak at Wimbledon on Centre Court is longer than any winning streak Nadal has on Court Phillippe-Chatrier!!🤯Its also the longest winning streak on Centre Court at Wimbledon in history!!🤯🤯While the legitimacy of the stat is not verified, and it is also a little skewed considering Roland Garros routinely has players split their matches between Court Phillippe-Chatrier and Court Suzanne-Lenglen, Jelena Djokovic decided to chime in on the issue regardless."I didn’t know that, is that correct Wimbledon?

Wow twitter.com/Reggie61823972…Quite understandably, her words did not go over well with the Spaniard's fans, who could not believe their eyes that Jelena herself was contributing to the hate on Rafael Nadal. Many users pointed out that it was beneath her to endorse such blatant attacks by the 35-year-old's fans on the 22-time Grand Slam champion, stating that such remarks only made her husband less likable to neutral fans."Disgusting I swear!

The Serb, with his haul of 21 Grand Slam titles, now has only one fewer Major than the Mallorcan.Gaspar Ribeiro Lança@gasparlancaNovak Djokovic asked about the US Open: "I'm not vaccinated and I'm not planning to get vaccinated so the only good news I can have is them removing the mandated green vaccine card or whatever you call it to enter United States or exemption."

(1/2)#WimbledonBut it is unlikely that the World No. 7 can catch up with Nadal this year, considering he is not eligible to play in the US Open due to vaccine mandates in the country at the moment. The 35-year-old made it clear at his press conference after the SW19 triumph that he will not be changing his stance on vaccination even now, meaning that he will sit out the trip to New York even if it means falling behind to Nadal again.
