At this year’s US Open, we have seen something that has never happened before at the event- a disqualification. Novak Djokovic, who was angry about losing a break, whacked a ball that accidentally hit a line judge. She was clearly hurt, and that ultimately led to the Serb’s disqualification from the match and tournament.

After hearing this news, many people supported this decision. However, there were also a lot of fans who did not agree with it. One fan, to show his support, drew an amazing picture for Novak.

As you can see, the drawing in the Instagram post is incredibly accurate to a picture of Novak exiting the US Open. However, it has been modified a little to encourage the Serb, and his wife Jelena loves it. You can see the positive comments she’s given in the post, apart from thanking the fan who drew it.

Novak Djokovic Will Return

While the drawing was certainly amazing, it would not have existed if Novak hadn’t been disqualified. He is obviously upset about it, but it may not be because he feels the decision was incorrect.

In all probability, he is more disappointed with the disqualification since he had the opportunity to close in on one of the biggest records in tennis, which is the highets tally of Grand Slams in men’s singles.

After winning the 2020 Australian Open, the Serb was just 3 Slams away from equaling the all-time record. However, he lost out on the chance to close the gap after he was disqualified. But looking at Novak’s past, he won’t let this affect him for too long. In fact, it might even spur him on to do even better.
