Novak Djokovic hasn’t won a single ATP title in 2024.
The official outfit of Serbian tennis star Novak Djokovic has been released for the upcoming Paris Olympics 2024. The 37-year-old will wear a red, blue and white t-shirt, which resembles the colors of the Serbian flag. Lacoste has prepared the kit.
The Serbian tennis star is aiming to win his maiden Olympic gold in what is also expected to be the 37-year-old’s last Olympics. The 24-time Grand Slam champion’s only Olympic medal came in Beijing 2008, where he won a bronze in men’s singles.
He has failed to medal at the sporting mega fest since then. Djokovic will also head to Paris Olympics having failed to win a single title on the tour this year. Additionally, he has only played one final, that came against Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz at Wimbledon 2024 last Sunday.
In the first Major of the year at the Australian Open, Djokovic was eliminated in the semifinals by eventual champion Jannik Sinner. Moreover, he had to withdraw from the French Open 2024 before the quarterfinals after suffering a meniscus tear in his right knee. Djokovic underwent knee surgery for his torn meniscus in Paris.

Interestingly, he managed to make a quick return to action at the Wimbledon 2024 Championships, where he ended as a runner-up for a second consecutive year. Nevertheless, the 37-year-old is confident about his performance at Paris Olympics 2024.
Lacoste has released a fresh red, blue and white kit for the Serb ahead of the Sporting Megafest. The likes of Rafael Nadal, Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Lorenzo Musetti, Milos Raonic, and many other players are also participating in the men’s singles event in 2024.
Djokovic has decided to focus only on singles action and won’t be playing doubles at the 2024 Paris Olympics. The Serb reflected after his loss against Alcaraz last Sunday, “In order to really have a chance to beat these guys in Grand Slam latter stages or Olympics, I’m going to have to play much better than I did today and feel much better than I did today.”
He added, “I’m going to work on it. It’s not something I haven’t experienced before ever in my life. I’ve had so many different experiences throughout my career. In the face of adversity, normally I rise and I learn and get stronger. That’s what I’m going to do.”
