Novak Djokovic has finally found something to cheer this season. After a turbulent start to the year, the Serb won his 21st Grand Slam title earlier this month. He put on a magnificent display to defeat Nick Kyrgios of Australia in the summit clash. Although the former World Number 1 lost the opening set in that match, he came back strongly to overcome the challenge of Kyrgios in four sets.
Earlier this year, the Swiss maestro, Roger Federer revealed that he’ll be making a comeback at the Laver Cup in September. Also joining him in Team Europe will be the likes of Andy Murray and Rafael Nadal. Recently, Djokovic provided exciting news for tennis fans across the globe.
