World No. 1 Novak Djokovic is not merely a tennis player but has now become an ambassador of the sport. The Serbian legend has done great work in his country and has managed to uplift the level of the sport there. As a token of respect, the authorities in Serbia have also decided to give him a special gift.

Milan Stamatović, the President of the Municipality of Cajetina, a small town in Serbia, recently announced some good news. In an exclusive interview, he revealed that one cabin of the Zlatibor panoramic cable car will now have the image of Novak Djokovic.

Stamatović stated that he had promised the same to Djokovic about five years ago “out of respect for him (Novak) personally and his sports successes, humanitarian engagement.”

Popularly known as the Zlatibor Gold Gondola lift project, the cable car is the longest panoramic lift in the entire world. Once completed, it’ll connect the center of Zlatibor with the sky center of Tornik and will be about nine km in length. The lift will be able to carry about 1,200 people every hour and will take about 25 minutes to reach its destination.

“Immensely grateful to Novak Djokovic”- Milan Stamatović

Djokovic recently financed the reconstruction, adaptation, and equipment of a kindergarten in Ljubis, Zlatibor along with Stamatović’s Municipality of Čajetina.

“We are immensely grateful to Novak Djokovic for the donation, as well as for the visit to Ljubisa and Zlatibor,” added the President of the Municipality in the interview.

As far as tennis is concerned, Djokovic will now be playing at the French Open 2021. After ending as the runner-up at the Italian Open 2021, he’ll be eyeing his 19th Grand Slam title in Paris this year. Will Djokovic be able to lift his second Roland Garros title in 2021?
