Novak Djokovic surprised the fans in Belgrade and let his emotions run wild on the town hall balcony after his triumph at the US Open.
Goosebumps performance in Belgrade!
Novak Djokovic traveled to Belgrade unscheduled after his triumph at the US Open. The Serbian basketball team, which won silver at the World Cup in the Philippines, received a frenzied reception there. The tennis dominator Djokovic didn’t miss the opportunity to appear as a “surprise guest” on the town hall balcony in the city center – and celebrate with the thousands of Serbian fans.
Tara Djokovic makes her dad cry
On the balcony, “Djoker” was overwhelmed by emotions and couldn’t hold back the tears. Some basketball players hugged him before Djokovic took the microphone.
“There are rarely moments when you are speechless, but this is one of them. For me, this is a childhood dream come true. This is a great honor for me, it is priceless and this will definitely never happen again, this feeling will never happen happen again.”
Thiem calls illness and leaves the future open
After winning the US Open final against Daniil Medvedev (RUS), Djokovic had to cry when he hugged his daughter Tara. “She looked at me as I sat on the bench. And she smiled at me. Every time I needed that kind of innocent child energy, I got it from her,” he later said. “In the very stressful moments, especially in the second set, when I needed a little push, some strength, just lightness, she gave me a smile, a winning fist.”
With 24 major titles, Djokovic is clearly number 1 in the tennis world, Rafael Nadal has 22 titles, Roger Federer has 20. “If I didn’t come from Serbia, I would have been lifted up to heaven for many years,” he said to the debate about who is the greatest.
“This is part of my life’s journey. I am grateful that I come from Serbia, it gives me faith and hope. That’s why what I have achieved is even greater and fulfills me even more.”
