Djokovic's Paris slam quest backed by fans' unique support
Novak Djokovic tirelessly fights for his 25th Grand Slam title. The Serbian can count on support from the stands in Paris. One of Djokovic's fans attended the match wearing an unusual shirt.
Novak Djokovic is stationed in Paris and is preparing for the Wednesday match against Alexander Zverev. The stakes of the game include a spot in the semifinals of the Grand Slam at Roland Garros. The most titled participant of the tournament has already won matches against Mackenzie McDonald, Corentin Moutet, Filip Misolic, and Cameron Norrie. So far, Djokovic has not lost a set in four rounds.
The bar will be raised higher, as Djokovic's next opponent is seeded third, behind Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz.
The Serbian has fond memories of Paris because last year he fulfilled his dream of winning a gold medal at the Olympics. This time, he wants to achieve his goal and win his 25th Grand Slam tournament in his career. In the French capital, he can rely on support from fans, including one with an original style.
The fan decided to express admiration for two athletes simultaneously. The first is Novak Djokovic, and the second is soccer player Lionel Messi. Thus, there was an Argentina national team shirt with the number 10 and the faces of Djokovic and Messi depicted on it.
One of the shirts was worn by the fan, while the other was held in his hands and given to the tennis player. Besides the name Novak, it featured the word "GOAT," an acronym for "Greatest of All Time."
After the victory over Cameron Norrie, there was an exchange of memorabilia between the tennis player and the fan. Novak Djokovic received the unique shirt, and the fan was given a Roland Garros tournament towel. The tennis star could not overlook the original enthusiast.
