Jelena Djokovic, wife of tennis superstar Novak Djokovic, recently took to social media to express her admiration for her husband’s stylish appearance. She gushed over the all-black outfit he wore while attending a Lacoste event at the Great Wall of China.
Djokovic is currently in China for a tribute event organized by Lacoste called “The Shadow of a Champion on the Great Wall.” He has been an ambassador for the French luxury sports fashion company since 2017 and recently extended his partnership with them until 2025.
The 24-time Grand Slam champion was photographed at the Great Wall of China wearing an all-black ensemble from Lacoste’s Spring-Summer 2025 collection. Lacoste shared the image on their official social media pages.
This post prompted the Serb’s wife, Jelena, to express her admiration for her husband in the comments. She wrote
“Hello handsome 😍 🔥 ,” Jelena commented.
Djokovic has had a limited number of tournaments this season, and he has yet to win a title. The former World No. 1 had reached the semifinals of the 2024 Australian Open before falling to eventual champion Jannik Sinner. He then reached the quarterfinals of the French Open before withdrawing from the tournament due to an injury.
He also reached the final at Wimbledon but was defeated by defending champion Carlos Alcaraz. At the US Open, the 37-year-old only made it to the third round before being defeated by Alexei Popyrin.
The 24-time Grand Slam champion’s standout performance this year was at the 2024 Paris Olympics, where he claimed the gold medal by defeating Alcaraz in the final. This was both his and Serbia’s second Olympic medal in tennis, having taken home a bronze in Beijing in 2008.
Most recently, the Serb participated in the Davis Cup, helping his country defeat Greece and secure a spot in the tournament’s qualifying round, which is scheduled to be played in 2025.
