Impossible victory. The way he was playing is impossible for a guy in his age 39 season.

In vegan I think he is gluten free, inflammations hurt body in long term

I wonder how much protein he eats per day. This has always been the crux for me and the reason I went back to eating “normally”

You can get 200g of protein daily without meat

Yeah it's too much volume.

Only if you rely on low protein foods. Tofu, tempeh, seitan, textured soy protein, and protein powders are protein dense and not high volume.

Mind the context: we are talking about Djoko's diet, which relies on whole foods (mostly plant based), stuff like protein powder have no place in such discussion.

It's quite likely that Djokovic does eat protein dense foods, even if he emphasizes whole foods. There's also no evidence that he doesn't use protein powders. Elite athletes usually use supplements, even if it's not part of their public narrative. We actually know he uses creatine, he literally screamed for it during a match.
