Justus Reid, a social media influencer fan of Djokovic, recently wrote a song titled “Dare to Dream,” for the ATP legend. The young Serbian fan came up with the idea of this track after getting inspired by his idol’s speech that he delivered after his triumph in this season’s Australian Open.
Reid traveled all the way from the Balkans to New York where the current world No. 2 is participating in the US Open. He did so as he wanted to play his Djokovic-inspired song in front of the tennis legend himself. The social media influencer also made a video clip of his track that went viral online and eventually came to the Serbian tennis star’s lens on Instagram.
But that’s not all; the ‘Djoker’ later decided to meet and greet his young fan after his US Open practice session. In doing so, the Serb also made a promise to him, “I’ll perform for you now. And then later you perform for me”.
