I’m a better coach than player, Becker says after Djokovic win

German tennis legend Boris Becker has said he considers himself a better coach than player after overseeing Novak Djokovic’s victory in the French Open .

“I have to admit that I am now better as a coach than a player,” said the 48-year-old Becker, who won six Grand Slam . (2 Australian Opens, 1 US Open and 3 Wimbledon titles) during his playing career.

The 29-year-old Djokovic, who took Becker on as a coach for the 2014 season, captured his first French Open on Sunday to become only the eighth man to complete a career Grand Slam.

More impressively, he is just the third man to hold all four majors at the same time and the first since Rod Laver back in 1969. That is something even his eternal rivals Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal have failed to achieve.
