Great news from Serbia as Novak Djokovic and Viktor Troicki are back to the practice court after recovering from the Coronavirus.
The world no.1 had to face some rough weeks after the Adria Tour was called off because some players and members of the teams tested positive to the Coronavirus. The Serbian legend had also to cope with some hard criticism from some media and colleagues that probably blamed him too much for what has happened in the Balkans.
Here some pics of Novak and Viktor… keeping also the famous social distancing. Great to see them back and healthy. Also, it’s difficult not to stress the fact that Djokovic keeps on training on clay and that seems to be another confirmation that he is committed to the short swing on the dirt probably skipping the US Open.
