Novak Djokovic’s season so far is best described as incredible. With triumphant wins and back-to-back titles, the Serbian legend has been in the form of his life.

Each time he took to the court, the 34-year-old performed with a sense of youthful exuberance and showcased experience with class; hence, he has the titles to show for it.

However, taking a break from blowing minds on-court, he’s been winning hearts elsewhere. Despite having the world at his feet, the World No.1’s acts of generosity are an authentic example of what modern-day legends look like.

Currently in Japan for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, Novak Djokovic has been making headlines, even before donning the court. From coaching junior tennis stars to greeting his fellow Olympians, the 20-time Grand Slam champion has put his humility on display once again.

Croatia’s Olympic representative Franec Kojic shares the wholesome moment he met the 6-time with Wimbledon champion. Not just him, but even Dartford Tennis star, Patrick Brady, shared his moment of mentorship with the Serbian ‘G.O.A.T’.

“There’s an unprecedented frenzy around Novak Djokovic”- Franec Kojic

Documenting his daily happenings in and around the Olympic village, Franec Kojic shares his experience of meeting the legend up-close.

Ecstatically, an overjoyed Franec wrote, “There’s an unprecedented frenzy around him, and the man must have snapped five thousand photographs. I walked up to him and said, ‘Novak, please photo, this is why I qualified for the Games’, he smiled from ear to ear and said, ‘Of course he can.'”

Novak Djokovic’s quest for gold begins

All eyes will soon turn to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, as Novak once again begins his quest for a gold medal. In an already immensely decorated season, an Olympic silverware will fit just right in his bag of accolades.

Novak has had a long season, coming on the back of three championship wins. Hence, a Calendar-Grand slam is the most talked about right now. However, the determined Serbian stays fully focused on one goal; to win an Olympic gold medal for his country.
