Serbia’s tennis star Novak Djokovic showcased his interest in American football as he prepared ahead of an event in Indiana Wells.
The 36-year-old is often regarded as the greatest player in the history of tennis in the men’s singles category in the Open era, having won as many as 24 Grand Slam titles.
Djokovic posted a video on his official profile on the social media platform Instagram where he showcased his American football skills while attending the UCLA practice with his son Stefan ahead of the Indiana Wells.
Djokovic had a rather disappointing outing in the first Grand Slam of the year—the Australian Open—where he was knocked out after losing in the semifinal to Italy’s Jannik Sinner with a score of 6-1, 6-2, 6-7, 6-3.
Djokovic has an impressive record while playing at the Indiana Wells where he lifted the title five times. However, his last triumph at the event came way back in 2016 when he defeated Canada’s Milos Raonic in the final with a score of 6-2, 6-0.
Last year, the competition was won by Spain’s young tennis star and the current world number two Carlos Alcaraz as he defeated the current world number three Russia’s Daniil Medvedev in the final with a score of 6-3, 6-2.
