NEW YORK – Who could have imagined, in the space of 24 hours, that two legendary champions would become parents?
In Novak Djokovic’s case – for the second time.
Less than a day after Serena Williams gave birth to a baby girl, Novak Djokovic’s wife Jelena had a baby girl of her own. There’s already a name: Tara.
Maybe, two decades down the road, there will be two little champions making their moves at the US Open, as the both turn 20.
Serena’s little girl, of course, will always be able to brag that she’s one day older.
Congratulations to the Djokovics, and to Williams and fiancé Alexis Ohanian.
With all the crazy news happening on court this week, it kind of brings a sense of wonder and normalcy to things, doesn’t it?
