Novak Djokovic defeated Flavio Koboli in the quarterfinals of Wimbledon and celebrated the victory with another round of pumping in front of the London crowd, continuing to support the protests in Serbia. In the semi-finals, Janik Siner, ranked first on the ATP list, awaits him
The best tennis player in history Novak Đoković now he is two steps away from the trophy in London and complete delirium among the rebellious citizens of Serbia. Flavio Coboli lost 3-1 in the quarterfinals Wimbledon, and a new one fell pumping.
Promised - done, one would say.
But it was not easy at all. Fifteen years younger, the Italian made great progress in all segments of the game and offered strong resistance. From Monday, he will be in the top 20 in the world.
In the semi-finals, he will face a difficult opponent, the world's number one tennis player, Janik Siner.
Although punished for doping, the Italian could become a favorite of the Serbian government and its supporters. Maybe some graffiti will appear again - "Janik doping Son" (yes, son, a Čacije story), but this time without a bad connotation.
The pump doesn't stop.
Since the beginning of Wimbledon, Novak's victories have been followed by pumping, and his fans expect the biggest on Sunday, July 13 on the Central Court.
After the match with Alexander Miller in the first round, the Serbian tennis player promised that he would celebrate every subsequent victory with the same gesture - pumping.
The excitement, as much as it was then after the unexpected winning choreography, grows with each new match. Both because of Novak's success itself, and because of the symbol that this gesture carries with it.
Waiting for the (Wimbledon) epilogue
Even the birds flying over the London fields already know that Novak's celebration represents support for the student, or now civil, struggle against the regime in Serbia, which has been going on for eight months.
If there is at least one indication that Serbs are playing in two teams, it is the fact that, while some are still happy about Djokovic's successes, others spit on the former hero or simply "cancelled" him.
Surely, whether or not Novak wins Wimbledon, someone will rejoice.
