Novak Djokovic says that his brother, Marko has stopped playing tennis and his youngest brother, Djordje is still deciding whether to play on tour, discussing the extra pressure on them due to their relation to the world No. 1.
With a wild card, Novak and Djordje Djokovic played doubles in Beijing and won their first-round match. Djordje, 20, is ranked 1,502 in singles. Marko, 24, never won a match at the ATP Tour but reached a high of No. 581 in 2012.
"My oldest brother stopped playing tennis," Novak said. "The youngest one is considering if he wants to continue or not. I'm actually glad we get a chance to play before he makes any decision.
"I tried always to be part of it. Obviously with lots of success that I had throughout all my career basically, juniors and then professional circuit, that added extra pressure on them and expectations, it was very difficult for them to handle such expectations."
All three Djokovic brothers are together in Beijing this week.
