Despite surpassing the Grand Slam record titles of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, the antics of Novak Djokovic keep on giving fans things to take a dig at him. Both Nadal and Federer are known for their charitable works. Consequently, that is something Djokovic antics have used against him, calling him “selfish”. However, apart from the charitable acts by the Novak Djokovic Foundation, there are numerous things that the Serbian tennis star has done.

Coming in his defense, renowned tennis commentator and expert James Melville has provided some whopping numbers to shut Djoker’s antics off.

Charitable numbers of “selfish” Novak Djokovic hits his antics 

The Serbian tennis player not only boasts of his record-setting numbers on the court. He has also invested numbers in charitable works. But his antics lead people to turn a blind eye to it and call him “selfish” and “non-charitable”.

So, recently, a prominent tennis commentator and pundit James Melville hit back at Djokovic haters with staggering stats of his charitable moves. Djokovic contributed to the opening of 49 pre-schools and the training of 2200 teachers. Besides that, he contributed $5.3 million to the Serbian public health system.

He also gave $1.7 million for medical equipment during the COVID-19 pandemic. He has also stepped up for the rehabilitation of people after the 2014 floods in Serbia.

All in all the number goes up to whopping $14 million dollars. This has solely gone into the charitable works undertaken by the Serbian tennis star. So it doesn’t feel quite fair that Novak gets all this hate just due to his dominance & wacky antics on-court. Still, things will perhaps take a turn as Djoker heads into the twilight of his career.
