Novak Djokovic recently shared a charming anecdote from Wimbledon 2025, highlighting a delightful interaction involving his 10-year-old son, Stefan. As Djokovic competes for another Grand Slam victory, Stefan has been on his own mission, collecting autographs from ATP and WTA players at the All England Club. Remarkably, Stefan has secured signatures from nearly all the top players, with one notable exception: his father. “He has everyone’s signature except mine,” Djokovic remarked with a grin. “But that’s okay, I’ll accept that.”
Independent and Enthusiastic Collector
Djokovic elaborated on Stefan’s independent approach to gathering autographs, proudly noting that his son wears a white cap now adorned with signatures. “He approached and asked for autographs all by himself,” Djokovic explained. “I might have only asked Jannik or someone, but everyone else he’s approached on his own.”
In addition to collecting autographs, Stefan has been seen playing tennis with some of the players, including Flavio Cobolli, Djokovic’s upcoming opponent in the quarterfinals. The two enjoyed a few points together earlier in the week, prompting Djokovic to humorously suggest he might need to seek tactical advice from his son.
A Shared Passion for Tennis
Stefan’s burgeoning enthusiasm for tennis brings immense joy to Djokovic, who often emphasizes the importance of maintaining a fun and family-oriented relationship. While Djokovic remains focused on his matches, he takes great pride in witnessing his son’s enjoyment of the sport in his own unique way.
As Djokovic advances in his Wimbledon journey, it’s evident that the most cherished moments for him extend beyond the court, as his biggest fan continues to create lasting memories, one autograph at a time.
