“But nevertheless there were a lot of people that showed up on the streets. I’m very thankful to the city of Belgrade and the country of Serbia for creating some special events during that day to acknowledge the success.

And it was definitely a very special day that will stay forever in my heart.’ ‘ Djokovic, who has 18 Grand Slam titles in his collection, is now focused on breaking the all-time Grand Slam record.
