Thousands of people gathered on cold Monday evening in central Belgrade to welcome Serbia’s new sports heroes – Serbia’s national tennis team, this year’s Davis Cup winners.
Fans cheered “Serbia, Serbia!”, “Champions, champions!” and waved flags as the players, Novak Djokovic, Viktor Troicki, Nenad Zimonjic and Janko Tipsarevic appeared on the balcony of Belgrade City Hall – a traditional gathering place for trophy-winning sportsmen in the country.
“I was here when I won tournaments, but now, with my friends from the national team, it is more important. This balcony is linked with Serbia’s greatest sporting successes and we deserve to be here. We have something that no team has: friendship both on the tennis court and in private and that contributes to winning this title,” said Nole.
