It wasn’t long ago since Novak Djokovic won his 20th Grand Slam title, equaling a record held only by his fellow ‘G.O.A.T’s, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. Only recently, the World No. 1 put on an emphatic display to win the 2021 Wimbledon Championship, his sixth major on grass.

Apart from that, he also fought hard in the French Open final and the Australian Open final to clinch both the titles in exuberant style. Hence, the Serbian has been enjoying life on-court. However, not limited by the longevity of his campaign and hoping to add more accolades to his name, Novak has cut-short his break and is back in action.

In a newly emerged video, fans saw Djokovic back in training, ahead of his trip to Japan for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. It was surprising to see the 34-year-old, who just recently completed his title-winning campaign, already hitting the training ground.

What a season

Novak began his season in Melbourne at the 2021 Australian Open. In a battle of the best, the World No. 1 faced World No. 2, Daniil Medvedev. Regardless, Novak put his experience to use and dominated his way through the match, winning the final in straight sets, with a scoreline 7-5, 6-2, 6-2.

However, the French Open final was far from easy. World No, 4, Stefanos Tsitsipas made life difficult for Novak, winning the first 2 sets of the game. Fans had declared the Serb down and out going into the third set; little did they know what was coming next.
