Serbian star is still missing an Olympic title after four appearances

World number one Novak Djokovic said he is already looking forward to next year’s Olympic Games in Paris, as he seeks to win a gold medal – one of the few achievements he is missing so far in his legendary career.

Djokovic won a bronze medal in Beijing 2008 but stayed out of the top 3 in 2012, 2016 and 2021. The Serbian said he hopes to be fit and healthy for next year’s showpiece, by which time he will be 37.

The tennis competition at Paris 2024 will be held on the claycourts of Roland Garros where Djokovic has won two of his 22 Grand Slam titles — in 2016 and 2021.

“I look forward to the Olympics. I hope I’ll be able to play healthy for next year in Paris. It’s going to be played on clay at Roland Garros, so I’m familiar with those grounds. I hope the best Olympic result for me will come there.”, he said.
