World No.1 Novak Djokovic and his wife Jelena tested positive for coronavirus after coming off fresh from his Adria Tour of events organised in Belgrade, Serbia where three other tennis stars - Grigor Dimitrov, Borna Coric, and Victor Troicki - along with two coaches had contracted the virus. Djokovic got himself and his entire family tested for COVID-19 upon arrival in Belgrade. And while he showed no symptoms of the virus, he tested positive and so did his wife Jelena.
In the statement, Djokovic said: “I am extremely sorry for each individual case of infection. I hope that it will not complicate anyone’s health situation and that everyone will be fine.” While other players remained in Zadar to be tested on Sunday night, Djokovic travelled home from the tournament to his home in Serbia before being tested for the virus, with Adria Tour organisers saying this was because he was not showing symptoms.
