Novak Djokovic channelled his inner musician as he pulled off a special violin celebration at Wimbledon. The Serbian first performed it after beating Alexei Popyrin in the third round of the tournament. Having won his match against the Australian tennis player, Djokovic walked back into the middle of the Centre Court, drawing cheers from the spectators. The Serbian great then raised his racket and put it up on his shoulders. He then pretended to play the violin. Djokovic later explained the celebration to the media, claiming it was dedicated to his daughter. “That was for Tara. My daughter has been playing violin for some time already, six months, and we agreed I would celebrate that way,” Djokovic said as per multiple reports.
