Novak Djokovic had some unexpected free time after falling in his opening round at the Miami Masters.
So the Aussie Open champ packed his racquet bags and returned to his homeland to visit the ethnically divided town of Kosovska Mitrovica in Kosovo where he was greeted by throngs of supporters. Nole made his views known recently when he released a YouTube video supporting a unified Serbia.
UPDATE: Here's what Nole told the crowd who gathered to greet him:
All my wins are your wins too.(images via ohlalamag.com)
This place is really deep, deep in my heart, and I’ll come back here always, whenever I can and give support to people that need it
There are some moments in life when everything in your mind just stops. This is one of those moments for me and my family, for everyone who came today
It’s really hard to find enough time because of all the commitments I have as a professional tennis player, but I’m really happy that I managed to come here, because I know this is my homeland, my family descend from here, my father, uncle, aunt. My grandfather lived here for 30 years.
