Novak Djokovic Sends a Heartwarming Message to His Oldest Fan Who Missed His Wimbledon Triumph

World No. 1 Novak Djokovic is all for his fans. From giving kids his Grand Slam title-winning racquets to making his oldest fan’s day, the Serbian is always ahead in appreciating his supporters.

Recently, the 34-year-old Serbian lifted his sixth Wimbledon and 20th Grand Slam title. During that time, his oldest fan, 92-year-old Aunt Bette, was in a hospital in Pennslyvania. Hence, she could not watch Djokovic win the trophy in London.

However, Aunt Bette’s niece Rebecca Forand contacted the Belgradian via Twitter, asking to hear from him. Naturally, Djokovic responded immediately.

After winning Wimbledon, Djokovic handed a young girl the tennis racquet he used in the final.?

Before this, the Serbian had done the same during the French Open 2021 triumph. Then, he gave it to a young boy who coached him throughout the final. Unquestionably, he knows how to make a fans’ day, be it young or old.

Hopefully, Aunt Bette will recover speedily and watch him compete for the gold medal at Tokyo Olympics. Also, it might be his best chance of completing the Golden Slam in 2021.

Who can stop Djokovic at Tokyo Olympics?

Surprisingly, Djokovic’s best at the Olympics happened more than a decade ago in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. The Serbian managed to win a bronze medal there, but he has never come close to winning after that.

Despite numerous withdrawals, many players will represent their country at the Games this year. Most significantly, it is the two-time defending champion Andy Murray and Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas who will aim to stop Djokovic.

The tournament will commence on July 24 and run until August 1, 2021, at the Ariake Tennis Park Centre Court. But due to the national emergency in Japan, there will be no fans in the stadium to watch the events.
