Novak Djokovic last played at the Six Kings Slams.

Novak Djokovic is currently in Qatar, enjoying his time outside the tennis court alongside Formula 1 Team Ferrari at the Lusail International Circuit. The Qatar Grand Prix is scheduled to take place on Sunday, December 1.

Djokovic last played at the 2024 Six Kings Slam in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. He lost to Jannik Sinner in the semifinals but later defeated 14-time Grand Slam champion Rafael Nadal to finish third in Riyadh. Later, he missed the Paris Masters and the 2024 ATP Finals due to health concerns.

However, in the rest season, Novak Djokovic has become the new Global Brand Ambassador and Wellness Advisor of Qatar Airways. The 37-year-old arrived at the Altitude Wellness Centre in Doha for the reveal.

Qatar Airways CEO, Engr. Badr Mohammed Al-Meer, commented, “We are thrilled to welcome Novak Djokovic to the Qatar Airways family. Novak’s extraordinary career, defined by record-breaking achievements and an unrelenting drive to succeed, mirrors our own commitment to excellence.”

After the ceremony, the Serbian tennis star is enjoying his best life in the Middle East. Currently in the Losail circuit in Qatar, Djokovic was spotted spending time with Team Ferrari.

The official X (formerly Twitter) account of Ferrari uploaded a video of the Serbian tennis star, where he can be seen warming up with the help of a resistance band. Along with Djokovic, the whole Ferrari team can also be seen doing the same exercise.

Last week, Djokovic announced that former British tennis star Andy Murray would become his new coach ahead of the 2025 Australian Open. The 24-time Grand Slam champion parted ways with his former coach Goran Ivanisevic earlier this year.

Andy Murray will start working with his former arch-rival at the start of next season. In Melbourne, Djokovic would aim to win his 11th Australian Open title. The 37-year-old is currently seventh in the ATP rankings, behind the likes of Casper Ruud (6th), Daniil Medvedev (5th), and Taylor Fritz (4).

This season the Serbian tennis star failed to win any title on the tour, except the men’s singles gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics. He defeated four-time Grand Slam champion Carlos Alcaraz to win the highly anticipated Olympic gold medal, which was the last jigsaw piece missing from his illustrious trophy cabinet.
