No, it wasn’t a glamorous evening at Geneva’s Stade de Genève. YB won against Servette 1-0 and became Swiss champions for the 17th time, but with 13,224 spectators the arena was not even half full. Nevertheless, a very prominent guest got lost in the Geneva stadium: Novak Djokovic.

The world number 1 in men’s tennis is playing in Geneva this week, where he will take part in the action for the first time on Wednesday. The record Grand Slam winner definitely wants to gain some match practice before the French Open in Paris and, above all, gain self-confidence.
Recently, things didn’t go as Djokovic wanted. He hasn’t won a tournament since November, and the clay season has been a drag so far: He has only won four games since the beginning of April. The Serb also made headlines in Rome after being hit in the head by a bottle, which he later blamed for his early defeat.
In Geneva, football fan Djokovic insisted on seeing a game live in the stadium again. For the self-confessed Milan fan, it was not the first visit to Geneva’s Stade de Genève. The 36-year-old already attended a Servette game in 2014. At that time, Djokovic came to the Challenge League game against Vaduz because left-back Neven Markovic, a close friend, was playing for Servette at the time. (pre)
