World No. 1 Novak Djokovic has been a true ambassador of this sport for the past decade. After trailing behind the likes of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, he’s now level with both at 20 Grand Slam titles each. Ever since becoming a prominent figure in tennis, the Serb has had his own charitable institution, the Novak Djokovic Foundation.
His wife, Jelena Djokovic, is the co-founder and director of the organization. The main focus is to take care of underprivileged children.
