Americans in shock over Djokovic: He could have enjoyed a fancy hotel, but he decided to be the most pleasant star of the Games
At one point he trains with Belgian gymnasts, the next he talks to Brazilian volleyball players, then has lunch with a Mexican weightlifter and gives advice to Turkish athletes.

"It's a fantastic experience for me. It is great to see that there are many athletes who respect tennis players and follow tennis. We are here as representatives of their countries and their sports and it is a fantastic experience to be close to the best athletes in the world, to see how they train, how they recover, what they eat, what they think about life, sports but also how they exchange experiences. and tips. "It's wonderful, it's a lot of fun." quotes journalist Woken, the words of Novak Djokovic.

According to journalist Walken, Novak is not any athlete.
"He won 20 Grand Slam titles, which equaled Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. During his career he earned more than $ 150 million from tournament prizes alone. He will probably become the best tennis player in history and is probably the most famous athlete in the Olympic Village. In such situations, it would be easier for Djokovic to stay in a fancy and fancy hotel where he could have privacy. "In the end, the main goal of why he is in Tokyo is to become the first tennis player in history to win the 'Golden Slam' if he wins the Tokyo and the US Open." writes Walken in his text.
