Novak Djokovic recently won the Wimbledon 2022 gentlemen’s event after defeating Nick Kyrgios in the final. This was his 21st Grand Slam triumph.
Novak Djokovic inaugurated tennis courts at a pyramid park in Bosnia. The Serbian tennis legend often visits the place to take a breather from his busy schedule. The first time he paid a visit to the place was back in 2020.
He has made several visits over the past couple of years to the Bosnian Pyramid of the Sun complex and he has been welcomed by the site’s founder Semir Osmanagic.
As per Osmanagic, the thought of building a regional training center at the place came during Djokovic’s last visit in March. After coming to the new courts, the seven-time Wimbledon champion said, “This is a special day for Visoko, for Bosnia, for the whole region, for tennis, for sport.”
“The message of this day is peace, sport, future, and health,” added Djokovic.
Novak Djokovic played three exhibition matches. The champion player seemed to be in a rollicking mood as he entertained the audience by mock-arguing with the referees and also attempting to bribe them.
The 36-year-old played exhibition matches against Croatian Ivan Dodig, Bosnian Aldin Setkic, and Aljaz Bedene of Slovenia.
After the matches, Djokovic spoke to the reporters. He said: “Here, we simply feel the energy, each in its own way. For me, this is one of the most energetically powerful places on the planet, of which I have seen many,” Djokovic told reporters after the exhibition matches.
“I simply feel that every moment spent here fills me with energy and gives me strength for future challenges in tennis and in life,” he added.
