“We expect Novak to arrive within the next few days, although he will not be staying with us in the Village,” an organizing member of the Serbian delegation said.

At the Tokyo 2020 Games, the champion of 24 Grand Slams chose to live the experience of living with the other athletes. “I’m enjoying every second, in a place with more than ten thousand athletes, exchanging knowledge, life stories, and things about sports. You don’t get that kind of experience anywhere else,” he declared three years ago.
