Vivek Ramaswamy, an Indian-American entrepreneur, and Republican Party presidential candidate, has extended a special invitation to tennis legends Novak Djokovic and Patrick McEnroe. The notion of a friendly hit-up comes as Djokovic prepares to return to the sport’s major stage following an almost two-year absence.
In a tweet to Patrick McEnroe, Ramaswamy expressed excitement for a future showdown at the US Open and recommended inviting Djokovic to participate in the friendly match. Ramaswamy joked about the need to prepare for the September discussion while hinting at his tennis commitment.
Djokovic, the Serbian tennis sensation owing to his refusal to acquire the Covid-19 vaccine, prevented him from competing in the 2021 US Open. During his successful homecoming, Ramaswamy took advantage of the opportunity to congratulate Djokovic on his recent victory at the Cincinnati Open.
