The seven-time Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton loves to play tennis, enjoy the practice sessions with his dad or friends, and follow the world's finest players.

When the Mercedes driver shared a childhood picture of him wearing a tennis t-shirt, it drew a lot of attention from the world of tennis, including the world's best player and one of the finest coaches.

The 20-time Major champion Djokovic liked a little racquet on the t-shirt, cracking a joke and thanking Lewis for not choosing a tennis career. Knowing how dedicated and hard-working Lewis is, Novak believes that he would have been very successful on the tennis court and challenge him and other top-tier competitors for notable titles.

Patrick Mouratoglou has been working with Serena Williams since 2012, owning a prestigious tennis Academy and helping many young talents find their way towards the top. Like Novak, Patrick celebrated the t-shirt and said that Lewis' parents have a good taste for the sport.

"I love the t-shirt you got in your photo as a boy. By the way, good that you chose car racing instead of tennis. Otherwise, we all would be in trouble," Novak Djokovic said.

"Nice t-shirt as a kid! Your parents have a good taste for sport," Patrick Mouratoglou said.
