Novak Djokovic is headlining tennis news once again, this time without even playing any tournaments. His most recent and largest accomplishment came after winning the Laureus World Sportsman of the Year award. The award is similar to an Oscar for an actor, meaning Djokovic is an extremely popular athlete worldwide.
Just a little reminder to all you tennis junkies out there. There is a bit of a let down for all of us after the Australian Open.
Novak Djokovic is the most obvious missing face from the Serbia team that hosts Sweden in the opening round of the Davis Cup’s World Group this weekend and the world no.1 has issued a warning that his absence could extend throughout 2012.

Novak Djokovic just might begin the 2012 season on another historic run. After defeating world No.2 Rafael Nadal 5-7, 6-4, 6-2, 6-7, 7-5 in the epic 5 hour and 53 minute Australian Open finals match Djokovic made headlines all over the world.

Novak Djokovic maintained a clean bill of health for the upcoming Australian Open semi-final with Andy Murray after appearing to suffer a pulled hamstring and struggling to breathe properly. Djokovic, still sufficiently healthy to overcome world no.5 David Ferrer in straight sets.
Novak Djokovic is only just starting to defend what he achieved last season, but so far it’s going well, he says. "Well, I'm going to experience lots of, let's say, expectations and pressure of being a top player this year as long as I'm there. I think I started off well. I think physically, mentally I'm motivated,"
Nothing in his game needs fixing, so Novak Djokovic will stick with the program which took him to the top of the sport in 2011 as the holder defends his Australian Open title. "I don't think that in general my game should be changed or that I should take any major changes in it," said Djokovic.
Djokovic is all the rave—optimists think Djokovic can win his first major title of the year at the Australian Open while pessimists state that he’s too worn out to even make an impact. The facts lean either way.
