Novak Djokovic is currently participating in the Davis Cup for Serbia. Amid the tournament the former world no 1 took to his Instagram to share a post of him dancing on the treadmill during the training session. The post of him combining Fitness and Dance has gone viral on social media.
In the Davis Cup, Djokovic demonstrated his dominance with a commanding 6-0, 6-1 victory over Ioannis Xilas on Saturday, putting Serbia ahead 2-0 against Greece. The match, which lasted just 45 minutes, saw Djokovic convert five of seven break points. This was Djokovic’s first match since his third-round exit at the US Open
This victory came after a strong performance by Miomir Kecmanovic, who gave Serbia an initial 1-0 lead with a 6-3, 6-3 win over Aristotelis Thanos. Djokovic aims to help Serbia advance in the Davis Cup World Group I and secure a spot in next year’s qualifiers.
Djokovic not chasing ATP Finals in Turin
At 37 years old, Djokovic recently announced that he won’t be chasing ATP World Tour Finals qualification this year. The Serbian is the two-time defending champion of the event.
Following the David Cup match, the Serbian said, "I am not chasing rankings, I am not chasing ATP Finals in Turin, at all cost. As far as I am concerned, I am done with that tournament. My goals are Grand Slams and playing for Serbia."
Currently Djokovic sits outside the ATP ranking and failure to qualify will make him the first male player since Alexander Zverev in 2022 to miss the event as the defending champion.
After the completion of his Davis Cup duty, the former world no 1 will be playing an exhibition in Sofia before returning to Shanghai for the first time in five years. The 37-year-old is a four-time champion at the event.
