Srdjan Djokovic
Novak Djokovic, the 35-year-old Serbian professional is widely regarded as one of the greatest tennis players of all time by millions across the globe. With 21 Grand Slam titles to his name, Djokovic has etched his name amongst the all-time elites of tennis and the Serb continues to wow the tennis world with his excellent and consistent performances.
Novak Djokovic has been surrounded by controversies throughout his career. The most recent of all was when his father, Srdjan Djokovic was spotted in pro-Russian rallies during the Australian Open. This led to speculations about the Serb’s father’s political standings and whether or not he would be allowed to see his son compete in the Australian Open final.
But all has become clear as the CEO of Tennis Australia has officially given the green light to Novak Djokovic’s father that he can attend the Australian Open final if he chooses to do so. He said, “It’s his decision, we are going to let it be his decision and ultimately, he has got to make that call. He didn’t break any event policy. That’s really important because what’s been written about what he said hasn’t been correct and I think people are back tracking from that.”

Djokovic beat the likes of Andrey Rublev, Tommy Paul, Grigor Dimitrov, and Alex De Minaur to make his way into the penultimate match of the tournament. He will be going up against Greece’s Stefanos Tsitsipas in the final.
