Novak Djokovic might be focused on winning another Grand Slam, but on Wednesday, the tennis star took a heartfelt moment to pay a sweet tribute to his wife Jelena in honour of their 10th wedding anniversary.
Taking to Instagram to share a montage of throwback pictures and unseen footage from their personal album, the 37-year-old penned the sweetest poem as he declared his love for his partner. Watch the video below…

“Ten years of joy, Ten years of dreams, Ten years as islands, Ten years as streams,” he wrote. “Ten years as parents, Ten years as one, Ten years of dancing, Ten years of fun.
“Ten years of yoga, Ten years we stretch, Ten years of dogs, Ten years go fetch. Ten years of flying, Ten years at sea, Ten years of you, The best part of me.”
He added: “Ten years of tennis, Ten years of balls, Ten years of triumph, Ten years of falls. Ten years as teammates, Ten years together, Ten years Jelena, I love you forever. I love you.”

The post comes hours before Novak is due to take on Alex de Minaur on Centre Court for a place in Wimbledon’s men’s semi-final. This year, Novak has made headlines after his match with Holger Rune where he hit back at those bellowing “Ruuuune” throughout the evening.
The crowds were cheering Rune in an elongated chant that sounded similar to booing – something, which Novak described as “disrespectful” to him.
