Ivanisevic: Some people would never play tennis again if they had to live through what Novak did in Australia. It’s heroic. #Wimbledon #Djokovic

- Serbian fans are not stopping. Singing a patriotic song "Tamo daleko" in front of the hotel where #Djokovic is at.
00:00 - Tsitsipas: “Novak Djokovic is the greatest that has ever held a racket”. #AustralianOpen
- You follow the rules set by the authorities of the country. You fly across the world to then be told by the same people who approved your application that you can’t enter, while being isolated in a room. That’s not the way to treat anybody. Public humiliation. #Djokovic
- #Djokovic on the famous “balcony” with national basketball team 🇷🇸. Emotions are running high as they are greeted my thousands of people 💜
00:00 - #Djokovic: If I wasn’t from Serbia, I’d have been glorified on a sporting level many years ago, especially in the west. But that’s part of my journey, I am proud to come from Serbia – all of these accomplishments are sweeter and even more fulfilling.”
- Medvedev falling apart also emphasizes how difficult it is to play biggest matches both against a great opponent and the crowd. Djokovic had to do it for the most part of his career and it puts extra weight on his achievements. #AusOpen
- Worth pointing out that #Djokovic got to number one without being eligible to play one Grand Slam and four Masters tournaments, and without 2.000 points from Wimbledon. Unseen.
