Novak Djokovic and Fabio Fognini to Go Live
Djokovic was somewhat low-key during the early days of the Tour suspension. That was until he and Andy Murray decided to do their own Instagram session a few days back. Having had a ton of fun, Djokovic scheduled another session the following day, this time with his good friend Stan Wawrinka.
And now, the Serb will strike up a conversation with Italian player Fabio Fognini.

Thankfully, we will now get to witness their rapport first-hand, and it is certain to be very earnest and interesting. Given both players also love to laugh, you can expect a fair amount of goofiness too.
Apart from the fun and laughter, we will also get to hear about the turmoil Italy went through and is still going through, during the COVID-19 outbreak. Until quite recently, Italy ranked as the worst-hit nation on the globe. the country suffered an excess of 24,000 deaths.
