Serbian tennis legend Novak Djokovic made the most of his time away from the tennis court as the 36-year-old attended his “tennis father” Nikola Pilic‘s documentary premiere on Friday. The 24-time Grand Slam champion wrote about it on social media as he shared the clips from the event.
As Djokovic is not playing at the 2024 Miami Open, the Serbian is busy with things off the court. While he recently sent shockwaves around the tennis world as he parted ways with longtime coach Goran Ivanisevic, Djokovic shared a beautiful moment with Pilic on Friday.
The Serbian shared multiple stories on Instagram where he revealed that he attended the premiere of the documentary on Nikola Pilic. Djokovic shared clips from his presence at the event. In one of them, he can be seen sharing the stage with the Croatian tennis legend.

Novak Djokovic sweating hard ahead of clay season
While Novak Djokovic is making the most of his time away from the court by spending time with the people he cares about, the Serbian is also working day in and day out for the clay season. Despite not having a coach to work with, Djokovic is continuing with his training sessions.
The Serbian ace shared video clips showing him training. The 36-year-old is yet to win a title this season and hence Djokovic is working hard to be in perfect shape before the clay season kicks off. As the 24-time Grand Slam champion suffered an early exit at the Indian Wells Open and did not play at the Miami Open, Djokovic is expected to directly return to the Monte Carlo Masters.
As there are no ATP 500 tournaments scheduled before the Masters tournament, the Serbian ace will return to action in Monte Carlo. But before that, Djokovic needs to hire a new coach which he says he is not sure about yet. It is to be seen who replaces the experienced Goran Ivanisevic who helped the Serbian win as many as 12 Grand Slam titles.
