LE SCAN SPORT – Novak Djokovic offered a striptease to the public of the Arena 8888 in Sofia during his exhibition match against Grigor Dimitrov.
This Tuesday, Novak Djokovic and Grigor Dimitrov faced each other in an exhibition match at the Arena 8888 in Sofia. A great moment of spectacle for the public in aid of the Bulgarian player’s association. After a hard-fought match, which the world number 4 lost in three sets (6-4, 2-6, 10-6), the Serb offered a striptease-style show.
Encouraged by the Arena crowd, Djokovic performed bare-chested, doing little dance steps and waving his t-shirt above him. Seeing the interest in his show, his opponent Dimitrov chose to imitate him and even did a few push-ups to the delight of the spectators.
A match with multiple entertainments. In addition to this offbeat sequence, Dimitrov allowed a 13-year-old ball boy to realize his dream by playing the match ball against the Serbian legend.
The young left-hander swept the former world number one to ovations with his cross-court forehand before finishing with finesse. Everything a pro does! Beyond the exhibitions, Djokovic should be playing in the Masters 1000 in Shanghai in two weeks. This Sunday he won against the 773rd world number, the Greek Ioannis Xilas in the Davis Cup.
