<h4>Novak Djokovic Net Worth, Salary and Endorsements 2021:</h4>
After winning his 13th Grand Slam at Wimbledon 2018, Novak Djokovic made a long-overdue comeback on the ATP circuit. The 17-time Major champion crossed 282 weeks at the World Number one spot and he continues to reside at the summit of the sport. Djokovic's 17 Grand Slam titles are the third-most of all time.

Injuries have been a persistent issue for Novak. At US Open 2019, he was forced to retire from the fourth round match due to a shoulder injury.

The 2020 season was controversial as well as a successful one for the year-end world number one. Djokovic started the year with his 8th Australian Open title at the 17th Grand Slam of his career.

He had a winning streak of over 30 matches, which also extended after the resumption of tennis post the lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic.

At the US Open 2020, Djokovic was disqualified during his 4th round match after unintentionally hitting the line judge with the ball. During the lockdown, the Adria Tour event which was organized by Djokovic was also embroiled in controversies after a few players tested positive for the virus, including Djokovic.

At the Italian Open, Djokovic won a record-setting 36th Masters 1000 title, surpassing Rafael Nadal's tally of 35. He finished runner-up to Nadal at the French Open 2020.

In 2021, he will aim to surpass Roger Federer's tally of 310 weeks as world number one.

Djokovic set up the <a href="https://novakdjokovicfoundation.org/">Novak Djokovic Foundation</a> to develop early childhood education projects in Serbia. It also gives grants for educational initiatives with the aim to help children.
