NOVAK DJOKOVIC has been tipped to copy Roger Federer and bounce back from his dip in form to win more Grand Slam titles.

Djokovic has not won a major tournament since the French Open in 2016 and he has struggled with an elbow injury over the past 12 month.
However, world No 1 Federer also experienced the same lull in form between for four years until he lifted the Australian Open trophy last year.
And BBC Sport pundit Peter Fleming does not think this is the end of the rode for Djokovic and has backed him to once again discover his top form.
The Serbian beat Adrian Mannarino in straight sets at Queen’s this afternoon and Fleming was impressive with his performance.
He most certainly will win more [Grand Slams]. I absolutely believe that 100 per cent
“That [French Open] was his last Grand Slam until the next one,” Fleming told the BBC.
“He most certainly will win more. I absolutely believe that 100 per cent.
"It is just a matter of how long it will take until the first one happens.”
Meanwhile, fellow pundit Andrew Castle reiterated those remarks.

“The top players have always been creatures of habit and they do the same things,” Castle said.
“There was that long period for Federer.
“People were saying he was gone and that he is not going to win again.
“He comes back and wins and wins again and still going into Wimbledon as the favourite once more.”
