Novak Djokovic may be the master of tennis. But there are some things in which he has to give props to his daughter. After all, they are a family of Champions. The Djokovic camp is happy and jolly and marching on towards Mission GS 25 in ruthless fashion. But they know how to mix it up—work and play. And amidst the celebration of 100 career Wins at Wimbledon, it’s his daughter, Tara, who’s winning the hearts. And here’s how.

As the third-round match against fellow Serb Miomir Kecmanovic finished, The Tennis Letter shared a clip of the post-game on-court interview. However, the caption read, “Novak Djokovic’s daughter showing the Wimbledon crowd how to pump it up after her dad’s win 😂 Adorable 🥹.” Well, it all involves Djokovic’s new celebration this year. When asked about it, the 7-time Wimbledon Champion went, “It’s called pumpa in our language and ‘pump it up’ in English.”

Continuing, he added, “There’s a song with my kids, and look, my daughter is doing it right now.” And as the cameras shifted to Tara, his proud father set the stage to take it away. “You want to show it, darling? You want to show me how it goes?” And the 7-year-old, like a seasoned performer, nonchalantly started breaking out the moves. It’s simple. All you need to do is get in the groove—pump both your fists down once, then twice. Then take it to the left, and then to the right. Hope you did it twice. And then finish it off by taking it up top, all while doing it once, then twice.

Hey, if it’s too confusing, you always have teacher Tara Djokovic to teach you the native Serbian dance. The crowd absolutely came alive in joy, as her simple, childlike cheer spread through the court like positivity radiating in every direction. Amidst moments of competition and rivalry, these little moments are what make the sport wholesome. As for Djokovic, he has no qualms about admitting it: “She’s the master.”

Thanks to the Serb, pumpa is becoming the thing of SW19 this year. And the 7-time Wimbledon Champ did finish the clip by saying that he hopes to keep going so he “can keep pumping more in Wimbledon.” It’s a journey that started a long, long time ago. And on July 5th, the 38-year-old scaled yet another historic milestone.

A day of celebration in the Novak Djokovic camp

After beating Miomir Kecmanovic 6-3, 6-0, 6-4, Djokovic became the 2nd man to reach 100 wins at Wimbledon. The first, obviously, is Roger Federer. With 105 wins, the Swiss is in the sights of the lethal Serbian who has made a name for himself at conquering summits and rewriting the history books. Djokovic, with this win, joined Federer in achieving 100 wins in 2 different Grand Slams.

While Federer did it at Wimbledon and the Australian Open, Djokovic achieved it at the French Open and Wimbledon. But here’s the catch. Djokovic has 99 wins at the Australian Open. If he continues till next year’s Grand Slam down under, the Serb will very well become the first man in history to have 100 wins in 3 Majors. That means 100 wins on grass, 100 on clay, and 100 on hard court surfaces. Difficult to refute that he is the GOAT of tennis, isn’t it?

But Novak Djokovic isn’t thinking that far ahead. For now, he has one mission. To win his 25th Major on July 13, 2025. Because then, the living legend can claim a share of the throne that Roger Federer alone sits on right now. As an 8-time Champion at Wimbledon, the Swiss genius is heralded as the symbol of creativity, class, and flair, which is what Wimbledon is defined by.

For now, everyone is eagerly awaiting how the next 8 days unravel. Will Novak Djokovic end up lifting the record-equaling 8th Wimbledon Title? Stay on top of every twist and turn in the Championships with our Live Blog.
