Novak Djokovic’s fans started a huge internet war after the Serbian’s name was not nominated for the Stefan Edberg Sportsmanship Award. Fans went berserk over the internet and started questioning the reasons for not selecting Djokovic.

Novak Djokovic’s fans recently pulled out an old video where former Indian tennis player Somdev Devvarman stated all the charity work the Serb has done and appreciated the 36-year-old. The Indian tennis phenomenon questioned:

Whenever there is floods in Serbia or anywhere in the world when there is fires in Australia, Novak Djokovic is there when Ukraine needs support, Novak Djokovic is there. When there is fundraisers, Novak Djokovic is there and yet somehow some part of the world believes you don't get the credit you deserve.

This video alone states all the work Djokovic has done for the world and why he deserves to be nominated for the award. In the video, the fans reacted and commented, “The locker room knows.”

More people have stood up in favor of the Serb, as he has done a lot for the needy and has not been appreciated for it. The Serbian even started an organization and a charity fund to help people, so fans are angry at Djokovic for not being recognized for his efforts.
