A video of a kid celebrating after Novak Djokovic gave him his racket is going viral on social media. The adorable moment was caught on camera after the tennis player scored a historic win in French Open and gave his racket to a boy in the stand as a gratitude gift.
As Djokovic gives his racket to him, the kid stands in utter disbelief and soon starts celebrating. The boy was on cloud nine after getting the winning racket from Djokovic.
During the match, the kid was cheering Djokovic nonstop with encouraging words. The boy was in much enthusiasm even when Djokovic was facing a two-set deficit.
“I found that very cute and very nice. To give the racquet to the best person was him. That was my gratitude for him sticking with me,” said the world’s number one tennis player in a press conference.
The clip has gone viral on social media and netizens are cherishing this precious moment. Where many congratulated the boy for amazing luck, others encouraged him to pursue tennis and be amazing just like Novak Djokovic.
Djokovic won his 19th major and his second French Open as he beat Stefanos Tsitsipas on Sunday at Court Philipe-Chatrier.
With his historic win as Djokovic was stretched to the limit and had to come back from behind to win the game after conceding the first two sets, he became the first man in the Open Era to win all four Grand Slam titles at least twice.
