Ahead of the 2023 Monte-Carlo Masters, Novak Djokovic and Jannik Sinner teamed up to entertain fans.
The duo played on a mini tennis court as part of the promotional activities leading up to the prestigious ATP 1000 clay-court tournament, showcasing their skills in a lighthearted and entertaining way.
The playful event featured several twists on the traditional game of tennis, with Djokovic and Sinner even attempting to play with three balls simultaneously, much to the delight of the gathered crowd. Their infectious enthusiasm and camaraderie were evident throughout, as they kept fans engaged with their playful antics and undeniable chemistry on the court.
However, the highlight of the day came when Djokovic, well-known for his spot-on imitations of fellow ATP and WTA professionals, decided to take on a new challenge: impersonating the unconventional playing style of Daniil Medvedev.
Medvedev is famous for standing exceptionally far behind the baseline. Djokovic's Medvedev impression was a sight to behold, as he stepped off the mini-court and positioned himself on the street to return balls from Sinner.
The exaggerated distance, combined with Djokovic's signature humor, had the audience in stitches. Djokovic's keen eye for detail and lighthearted spirit shone through in his imitation, providing a memorable moment for all in attendance.
Both players will now shift their focus to the main event in Monte Carlo, as they are both facing a difficult draw. Djokovic will start against the winner of the match between Brandon Nakashima and Mackenzie McDonald, and Sinner will meet either David Goffin or Diego Schwartzman.
