Novak Djokovic Jr, 7, has a Rafaesque follow through

Novak Djokovic, the six-time Wimbledon champion, is working on his son’s swing. “He likes to intimidate me on the court, finishing the swing here (over the shoulder). He knows I don’t like that particularly.

I’m trying to teach him to finish the swing over the shoulder,” the 35-year-old said, adding, “Whenever he does that he always laughs because he knows. We have these kinds of funny moments on the court.” “Stefan is fully immersed in ten -nis. He’s watching, he’s analyzing.

We’re talking,” the 20-time major winner said. “When I was putting him to bed, he was asking me questions: What is the difference between the racquet head sizes, the strings, why somebody is stringing less tension, all these basic questions that kids are very curious about.” “He’s in love with tennis right now,” Djokovic said. “It’s his own desire to really pursue tennis,” Djokovic said.

“I’m going to be there for him. I never force him to be on the tennis court, but if he wants it, I try to always make myself ready to be there and play with him. I will support him in any possible way I can so that he can be a professional tennis player if he really wants to.” The Serb then hastened to throw in a word of caution.

“It’s too early to speak about it, he’s not even eight years old,” he said. “It’s important for me that we have a relationship as a father and son before anything else.” Djokovic grew up trying his hand in a number of sports -- skiing, foot -ball, tennis, martial arts. “He’s try -ing different sports.

Super important,” he said. “It’s very important to have, particularly at this young age, a lot of stimulus from different sports and different movement, different activities. I don’t like children very early doing only one sport.
