So, the fans taught him the dance moves and then recorded the whole dance video with him as they all danced together. It can be seen that Djokovic was able to catch up on the steps very easily and imitate them for the video as well.

Djokovic loses a prestigious award once as the year ends for sports

Novak Djokovic, Lionel Messi, and Shohei Ohtani were nominated for the AP Male Athlete of the Year award.

His fans were outrageous about this decision because they thought he deserved the award the most.

Fans even posted about it on Twitter claiming that Djokovic has 3 out of the 4 grand slams and on the other hand Ohtani did not even make it to the playoffs. So, Djokovic losing it is not fair.
