- Novak Djokovic unveils green ‘energetic disc’
- The device says he was able to cure several ailments
Novak Djokovic has unveiled an ‘energetic disc’ which he claims has cured him of several ailments throughout his spectacular career.
The Serbian superstar hopes to turn back the clock and become the first tennis player to win 25 major singles titles with victory at the Australian Open.
Djokovic, chasing a record-extending 11th title in Melbourne, has unveiled a green disc that he takes everywhere and will help him stay in good health during the tournament.
“It’s (an) energetic disk (that) creates an electromagnetic field around it and (the) kind of secret is in this pattern,” he told GQ magazine.
‘And so if you place it on a certain part of your body, place this part, for example, if you have stomach problems, which I often have when I’m nervous or stressed before the match or if I have problems with my digestion, then it creates there is heat. .
“So then it starts to improve metabolic functions or reduce inflammation in a certain part of the body.

“A doctor I know in Serbia, who is also an engineer, made this disk for me and I have a bunch of them and I carry it with me everywhere.
“When I fly on a plane, I put it on (my) head or somewhere else. I shouldn’t leave it on the body parts for too long, so about 20-30 minutes does it’s job.”
Unorthodox is the word that suits Djokovic and his various beliefs, from pyramid water to a temple that keeps him calm, or the Bosnian mountain he adheres to.
Djokovic is undoubtedly one of the greatest tennis players of all time, but fans were not convinced by his energetic drive.
Respected Brisbane physiotherapist Brian Seeney – known on social media as NRL Physio – shared the clip with the caption: ‘Take me now, I’ve seen it all.’
Another fan replied, “But wait – there’s more! If you call within 60 seconds, we’ll throw in a box of left-handed screwdrivers and a pack of skyhooks…”
A third X user said: ‘Seriously. I can’t believe he actually believes this.’
However, others were quick to defend the tennis superstar, with one user writing: ‘There has been a lot of research into PEMF. Look it up, it works.’

It comes after Djokovic’s claims he was poisoned with lead while detained in Australia before being deported in 2022.
Then-immigration minister Alex Hawke infamously denied Djokovic entry to the country three years ago because he had not been fully vaccinated.
Djokovic was held at Melbourne’s Park Hotel for five days as he challenged the decision before being sent home.
In an interview with GQ ahead of this year’s Australian Open, the 24-time Grand Slam champion claimed he had been in position during his stay at the hotel.
‘I had some health problems. And I realized that in that hotel in Melbourne I was given food that was poisoning me,” Djokovic said.
‘I made some discoveries when I came back to Serbia. I never told anyone this publicly, but when I discovered I had a very high level of heavy metal. Heavy metal. I was in charge, very high levels of lead and mercury.
When asked if he believed it was the food, Djokovic replied: “That’s the only way.”
A spokesperson for Australia’s Department of Home Affairs told GQ: “For privacy reasons, the Department cannot comment on individual cases.”
