While he was there, he connected with a few young players who were also there for the tennis league.

While meeting them, they requested him to make a dance reel with them. And the amount of sportsmanship the world number 1 has, he did not say No and decided to do it for the young players who were also his fans.

During his time off, Novak Djokovic was approached by some young tennis players to shoot a reel with him. As he was unaware of the moves that had to be done to the song, he agreed to learn the moves of the sport and then shoot the reel with them.

So, the fans taught him the dance moves and then recorded the whole dance video with him as they all danced together. It can be seen that Djokovic was able to catch up on the steps very easily and imitate them for the video as well.
