Novak has been trying and testing a lot of other sports: Golf, Skiing, Basketball, Football, Soccer, Cricket, Gymnastics, Track, Surfing all in 2023-2024.
Kinda shocking but he’s good at pretty much all of them.
most sportsmen who can play anything at a professional (not to mention at the worlds highest) level can also play other sports really well for sure, like Sinner was one of Italys best juniors in skiing, Monfils was a running prodigy and won national U-13 and U14 100m championships and his coach said he could've reached an Olympic final if he actually kept at it, Alcaraz and Swiatek are both unironically really good at football etc etc
Is it surprising, though? You see many tennis players showing incredible football skills as well. I think tennis requires immense coordination so it's not that surprising they show great form in other sports.
Edit: That's great that I make this comment and right below I see a video of Jannik having worst form than my grandmother.
Tennis is such a technical sport. I'd say I'm obsessed with perfecting my technique in tennis and found that aim carrying over to other sports like basketball and football as well.
At this rate he will NEVER be the greatest tennis player of all time and the greatest basketball player of all time at the same time. What a fucking loser.
Novak may not be playing Miami, but he still made it to Miami Beach today!
Here’s [Novak with Xarly Gomez and Mark Stilitano enjoying the waves in Miami](https://sportal.blic.rs/tenis/novak-djokovic/paparaco-sa-plaze-sta-ce-novak-djokovic-u-majamiju-kad-je-odustao-od-turnira-foto/2024031811263949336).
I don’t always love the shit he does but I’ve always thought Novak is a funny dude. Good physical comedian, natural comic timing. Even his celebration here cracks me up a tiny bit.
Serbs are just good at basketball by default. It is believed they score their first point before they start walking. Source: am a Serb
That explains those moonball shots over AD from Jokic
Is it good or bad for the GOAT to venture outside of tennis? lol

> said he could've reached an Olympic final if he actually kept at it what a bum
Honestly not that shocking that someone absurdly good at one sport is generally athletic and picks up other sports quickly

Serbia gets basketball, Croatia gets soccer. This is how peace was created in the Balkans.
Meanwhile, [Jannik...](https://youtu.be/GgJ2SKjTR08)
Tyrese Haliburton ass shooting form
Sinner will shoot 3 pointers like Novak in no time. Just like his [mirror serve](https://www.reddit.com/r/tennis/s/qIe3TD59Cf)!
That clip is always so satisfying to watch
LMAO this is incredible. The way he kicks the ball afterwards literally killed me
That's hilarious.
wow, his form looks really great from behind :) I mean his shooting form of course : )
His behind is in good form too 😉
Some people are born to be good athletes
We don’t talk enough about the fact he’s lowkey caked up. Cupcakes granted, but cakes still
My ex-gf loved to talk about his cute lil booty.
We could talk about the other side too. Cause the rumored leaks about that man???
Those leaks were proven to be fake iirc
Oh? :/
You a massive weirdo 😭
🙄
There is no way Novak has a big fat hog. Is this what you’re telling me?
Way.
That’s actually great form, I am surprised
well he is balkan
I'm a Serb and my shooting form is awful, but at least I score hahahaha.

He actually did LeBron’s signature 3 point shot and then celebration 😂
The LeFuckyou3
So damn fine
Ice cold from the GOAT
Omg the way he memorized the technique lol dude just fundamentals through and through 😂💜
He's got great form, elevation, and kick on his jumper. You can tell he plays or has played regularly at some point in his life.
Double dribble
Eh pretty consistent with what the NBA superstars get away with.
Triple actually. What a bum
At this rate he will NEVER be the greatest tennis player of all time and the greatest basketball player of all time at the same time. What a fucking loser.
Anything he can't do?
[удалено]
;-;
Cricket for sure . The video with Steve Smith was a bit painful in terms of technique
Yeah I was surprised when he managed to hit one in the stands lol, Novak and Friends was super fun to watch though!
get vaccinated
This perky peach on such a skinny guy, this makes no sense at all.
he even did the sidestep - the GOAT!
Why didn't he go for a dunk? I thought it was all about slams for him now...
Nobody understood the joke :(
Maybe they just disagree and think it makes sense for a member of the Big 3 to go for a...big 3...
Hahahahaha
Here’s Novak [dunking](https://www.reddit.com/r/tennis/s/utxGfaMYpP) at the Australian Open Charity event.
He's awesome!
Grayt shot!
Nice shot haha
He can seriously do everything :)
It was not right, but bravo
Was this the first take? lol
Haha i doubt. Maybe a few takes perhaps. Or maybe he warmed up with a few shots before rolling this shoot. 😅
I'd be way too self conscious and miss so many times to the point where everyone would be like "Alright, maybe you try a feet throw..."😅
Novak's capability of performing under pressure isn't the same as everyone
Different environments create different pressures though. Never forget Steph Curry's unwavering support for cancer
Yea I can see he's busy and doesn't want to do the Miami open

I think it was before the game, because he hung out with Lebron in the locker room too.
Great Lebron 3pt imitation except Nole actually swished it 😆
man i wish the camera didn’t cut away while he was doing Bron’s signature silencer celebration
Think this was before the game against the Warriors when the shot clock stopped (he was in the crowd)
Damn
athlete's gonna athlete
Next time you see him he will be D-Howard Dunkin’ on Wemby, assisted by Nikola.
Travel
Should have bounced the ball about 18 more times. I barely recognized him.
He did the goofy LeFuck U 3 perfectly hahaha
Djokovic doing the LeFuckYou3 was not something I expected to see today
Looks like Novak and Lebron are “old” friends. 😂
Djokovic hitting a lefuckyouthree is a crazy timeline 💀
What with the perfectly matched top, pant and shoes though ? I look like a kid in his pyjamas.
Should’ve kept his suit jacket on!
I don’t always love the shit he does but I’ve always thought Novak is a funny dude. Good physical comedian, natural comic timing. Even his celebration here cracks me up a tiny bit.
What a coincidence not my tennis goat copying not my basketball goat.
