Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic, the world number one has been voted
European sportsman of the year 2021 by European press agencies.
The European sportsman awards are being handed out by European press agencies and this year's edition was organized by the Polish news agency PPA. They organized the 64th European Sportsman of the Year award, letting the leading 26 European news agencies be the jury. Novak Djokovic, 34, scored 172 points, 39 points ahead of last year’s
winner Robert Lewandowski. Dutch Formula One world champion, Max
Verstappen, came in third place.
Winner of five tournaments this year, this is the 4th time the
Serbian tennis star is honored with the award, previously winning it in
2011, 2015, and 2018. Djokovic just narrowly missed out on the Grand Slam in 2021, winning
the Australian Open, French Open, and Wimbledon, and advanced all the way
to the final at the US Open but lost to Russia’s Daniil Medvedev.
The wins saw him become only the second person in tennis history to
achieve the so-called Surface Slam, winning majors on the three
different surfaces of clay, grass and hard court in the same calendar
year.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
