Considered by many to be the greatest tennis player of all time due to his 24 Grand Slams compared to Rafael Nadal’s 22 and Roger Federer’s 20Novak Djokovic has confessed that “his greatest sporting achievement” has come with his gold at the Paris 2024 Gameswhere on the courts of Roland Garros he beat Murcia’s Carlos Alcaraz in a match for the history books (7-6, 7-6). In the second round of the competition, it should be remembered that he also beat the tennis player from Manacor, in a match in which he won by a landslide (6-1, 6-4).
The prize money for winning gold in the Olympic tennis singles is 200,000 euros. and the 37-year-old Serbian athlete has announced that he is giving up on them. This amount will be allocated to social projects carried out through charities in their native country.
It should be remembered that Djokovic has ‘The Novak Djokovic Foundation’, an organization that supports disadvantaged children.He does not work alone, as his wife Jelena is at the forefront of this organisation, which has been used to finance projects such as the construction of kindergartens in places where they were needed. They have helped more than 54,000 children.
It was in the summer of 2014 when the tennis champion and his wife – model, businesswoman and book publisher Jelena Ristic – They said “I do” in a ceremony held at the exclusive Montenegrin resort Aman Svetiwhile she was pregnant with her first child. In the autumn of that year, her firstborn, Stefan, was born. Little Tara was born three years later, in September 2017.
Novak and Jelena have been married for ten years and have formed the family of their dreams together, but just like Nadal and Xisca Perelló, they have been together for a lifetime. Their love blossomed when they were just teenagers. They went to the same school, which was geared towards sports disciplines. At Paris 2024, Djokovic has won the title he was missing by entering the Olympus of the Golden Slam. His wife and children celebrated with a heartfelt photo on Instagram this week. “Golden boy from Serbia,” she wrote.
The Golden Slam is an honourable mention given to tennis players who, in the same year, win four Grand Slams consecutively and add, that same year, the Olympic gold medal to their list of achievements.
