Novak Djokovic (38 years old) continues to draw attention – not only on the field at Roland Garros, but also behind the cameras. During an interview in Paris, he remained in the television studio more than planned, all culminating in a nice and spontaneous scene when Aryna Sabalenka (27 years old) entered the frame.
Belarus Aryna Sabalenka, currently the world number one, entered the studio just when Novak Djokovic exceeded the time allocated for the interview. The two have an excellent relationship for years, and the public had the opportunity to see once again how well they understand themselves outside the field. Djokovic joked and “invited” Sabalenka to join him with a tennis ball. Her reaction, in the characteristic style, “Novak, until you continue?”, The laughter of those present, according to Sportal.blic.rs.

Djokovic and Sabalenka signed tennis ball together
Visibly well-disposed, the two signed together a few tennis balls that Novak Djokovic had just removed from the package, after which they sent them in public.
The connection between them is not a surprise. Aryna Sabalenka never hid how much she appreciates Djokovic. They were seen together in numerous tournaments, often in an informal and relaxed atmosphere, and this time the humor was not lacking. “It's so boring,” Sabalenka joked as she took her place in the studio, which more amused the audience.
However, Sabalenka knows and defends Djokovic. A few days ago, he commented on the pressure on him. “Try to put even more pressure on Novak, leave it in peace. It is strong, prepared, both mentally and physically. It does an excellent job, of course it has less good moments-everyone has them. But look when it is healthy, it is simply bright,” said Sabalenka.
