Novak Djokovic is currently at Wimbledon with all his family. In recent interviews, Novak Djokovic disclosed that his son Stefan and daughter Tara are big fans of Carlos Alcaraz and Andrey Rublev. Talking about his son, previously he was a huge supporter of Rafael Nadal, but apparently he has now switched to Carlos Alcaraz.
His daughter, Tara, is a big admirer of Andrey Rublev. Novak Djokovic tried to give an explanation for that, saying that it’s probably the cool headband that the Russian player uses to wear.
Novak commented: “Tara is [a fan of Rublev]. Yes. I can’t wait to go back to the house to talk to her about it. She normally doesn’t follow tennis. But she likes him. She likes him for his headband. And for his energy and intensity. That’s the number one choice for my daughter. Yes. Hopefully, daddy comes in front tomorrow.“
