Novak Djokovic, with his extraordinary mental toughness and ability to succeed even under pressure on the court, his unwavering will inspires me to achieve my goals with the same relentless determination. His resilience resonates deeply with me, as I was nicknamed "the fighter" by Bruguera, the former coordinator of the Turkish National Tennis Team; this title perfectly reflects my own tenacity and determination. Such as Djokovic, I never give up and never stop, facing intense challenges on the courts or pursuing goals.
