Novak has a rather special friend in Japan

22 May 2021

Novak Djokovic has just turned 34 and he had his “happy birthday” from all over the world. The Serbian legend had a space message from Asia. Djokovic had an interesting experience a couple of years ago in Japan when he challenged sumo actor and former pro sumo wrestler Yoshinori Tashiro.

Novak had one of his hilarious challenges when he tried to push around (with zero success) the Japanese that eventually didn’t forget Djokovic’s birthday.

Happy birthday Mr Novak Djokovic!!
