Tennis legend Novak Djokovic advanced into the finals of the 2022 Paris Masters as he defeated World No. 5 Stefanos Tsitsipas on November 5, 2022. The Serb was cheered on by a huge contingent of loyal fans, who were just excited for the 35 years old. However, what piqued viewers’ interest the most was Novak’s interaction with a fan, who was there to support him while leaving all her money and documents at home. That’s not all, the Serb even clicked a few selfies with the fan, leaving the girl in raptures.
The fan girl took to Twitter to show her happiness by sharing the ‘million dollars’ picture with Djokovic. She described the emotions she had as she went to see the match in Paris with the expectation of meeting her idol, leaving all her money and documents at home.
There must be curious minds about how a particular fan can get a chance like this amid a huge crowd. The answer, as it is understood from her tweet, is that she was waving a Serbian flag and that helped Djokovic to spot her. The tournament is happening in Paris, France and the number of Serbian flags will be less.
She also wrote about the run she made to get close to him from the stands as if her life depends on it and shaking with excitement. She was able to get this opportunity on November 1 when Djokovic got a routine first-round victory over American World No.34, Maxime Cressy.
Novak Djokovic’s storms into Paris Masters Final
Novak Djokovic has been making all the right noises throughout this week with his impeccable performances in the 2022 Paris Masters tournament. The Serbian sailed into the finals after a thriller semi-final victory over Greek World No.5 Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-2,3-6,7-6(7-4).
Novak Djokovic has played little tennis in the past couple of months, owing to the covid-19 restrictions. However, the 35-year-old has won all three tournaments he has played in the last four months, including Wimbledon 2022. The former World No. 1 last competed at the Astana Open, where he defeated Stefanos Tsitsipas in the finals.
Djokovic will have to face 19-year-old Holger Rune in the final here. The Danish World No.18 is one of the best players of the 2000s generation and probably a player whom he will have to face a lot in the nearby future.
