Novak Djokovic is setting his sights on gold at the Paris Olympics. The 24-time Grand Slam champion is juggling his preparations after the Wimbledon final match with showing off his flexibility in other sports. His recent venture into water sports, where he has proven to have exceptional skills outside of the tennis court, has captured the attention of fans.

Djokovic has repeatedly stated that he will prioritize the Olympic Games as he pursues the coveted singles gold medal. He stated in October of last year that one of his main goals was to win an Olympic gold, and he reiterated this objective prior to this year’s clay court competitions.

The former world number one recently took to his Instagram account to share a few pictures of him rowing, sitting in a yellow boat in swim shorts. Along with that, he wrote, “To get in the zone for @olympics, thought I’d try one of the other events.” 

On the other hand, talking about his Olympic dedication, earlier this year, before the clay swing, Djokovic stated, “The Paris Olympics are very important. The Olympics have always been a priority for me.” Subsequently, Djokovic has participated in four Olympic competitions; his most notable accomplishment was winning a bronze medal in the 2008 Beijing Games.

Since then, he has had two more near-misses for medals, enhancing his reputation as a fierce opponent in the Olympic arena. However, looking at his ability to ace other sports along with tennis, fans came forward to praise the Serbian tennis player’s heroic stunt.
