The world's best tennis player Novak Djokovic will set off for Tokyo on Tuesday, on the path to eternal glory, because his main goal is to win a gold medal at the Olympic Games, which would mean that he has won everything that can be won in tennis.

Before the trip to Japan, Djokovic was in Montenegro, where he visited Sveti Stefan and Kotor, and trained with his fitness coach. He was also seen in the company of former basketball players Vlade Divac and Marko Jaric.

Just before the trip to Tokyo, Novak decided to get a haircut. He probably had no idea that the man who would do it dreamed about this as his big fan, who has been following Djokovic since the very beginning of his career.

The hairdresser, Ivan Vukcevic, posted on Instagram what it all looked like and how much Novak delighted him.

"I have been following Novak Djokovic from the very beginning. I can freely say that I am among the biggest fans of tennis. Watching the matches, I would also comment on Novak's hairstyle and on how demanding his hair is to cut. Once Maja asked me, 'Imagine if you ever cut Novak's hair!' I replied, 'Oh, there's no way that's going to happen!' Although I secretly wanted it with all my heart and dreamed of that moment," the hairdresser from Kotor started his story, and then described what the call he had been waiting for for years looked like.

"When I received a call from my friends to schedule a haircut for Novak, I was in disbelief... I called Maja and said, 'Today I received a call that I have been waiting for all my life. Guess who I would be most happy to see after the family?!' I canceled everything else that day," Ivan breathlessly described what was happening.

The most interesting is certainly his first sentence to Djokovic, after the athlete apologized for being a little late.

"When he showed up, he apologized for being a little late, and I told him, 'I've been waiting 20 years for this moment!' Today I have gained memories for a lifetime. I cut Novak's hair before he left for the Olympic Games in Tokyo. We took pictures, talked about sports... and once again he convinced me that the greatest people are the simplest! Novak, thank you," wrote hairdresser Ivan Vukcevic.
