In a recent turn of events at the Australian Open, Novak Djokovic opened up about his family and kids where he mentioned a few details which turned heads all across the Rod Laver Arena.
After a convincing win over Australian tennis professional Alex de Minaur with a concluding score of 6-2, 6-1, 6-2, Nole was asked a few questions after the match in which he revealed his son’s stance on the game of tennis.
Novak, in a post-match interview at the dazzling court of Rod Laver Arena, was asked by the interviewer about his son Stefan Dokovic’s status on playing tennis as he is often seen practicing on-court with his father and whether he’s still enjoying the game.
“Whenever she looks at me, I’m disarmed.” 🥺 Novak’s tribute to his children after tonight’s win was just beautiful. ❤️

In response to the question posed to him, Djokovic commented, “He’s enjoying himself. The important thing is he’s loving what he’s doing.”
“He loves tennis. He wants to watch every single match. Whenever I’m at home there’s no tennis break for me because I play with him every day and it is the most beautiful thing I could experience in my life,” added Nole. Clearly, the Serb wants his son to become a tennis star soon if everything works out for the better and in favor of every tennis enthusiast’s wishes.
The 21-time Grand Slam champion also joked about his future ambitions with his son saying, “Who knows one day Stefan and I come back here playing doubles with you guys, I still have plenty of time ahead of me.”
Novak Djokovic has eased further into the Australian Open, stepping foot in the quarter-final, and has been voted as the most favorable to win the Melbourne Slam this year. The Serb will be locking horns with Andrey Rublev for his next match.
