"Booked my flight for Tokyo" says Novak Djokovic about Olympics participation

Novak Djokovic will compete at the Tokyo Olympic Games and he is excited to represent his native Serbia.

There are not many things Novak Djokovic did not do in his life but winning the Olympic gold is one of them. It's a longtime dream of his and he always underlined success for Serbian is something he cherishes the most. Leading up to the Olympics there was some doubt whether he will play but now it's known he will. He said:

"I booked my flight for Tokyo and will proudly be joining #TeamSerbia for the Olympics"

Djokovic then followed up his decision by giving some context saying:

"With much pride I'm packing for Tokyo and joining our national team in the fight for the brightest medals at the Olympic arenas. For me playing for Serbia was always a special joy and motivation and I will give my best to make us all happy. Let's go."

Djokovic will be heavily favoured in the Olympics as the event will have a depleted field with many cancellations. Even so, Djokovic has been practically unbeatable in the past two months so either way he will be heavily favoured to win the medal he is missing.
