Novak Djokovic earned big money from the Serbian Government for his gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Toni Nadal says Djokovic is the best player of all time following his win in the French capital, where he defeated Carlos Alcaraz.
Djokovic will get a museum from the Serbian Government for his latest achievement, having finally clinched Olympic gold.
It was a fantastic display from Djokovic, who had struggled with form and injury heading into the event in Paris.
Alcaraz meanwhile had to settle for the silver medal, with Lorenzo Musetti clinching bronze for Italy after beating Felix Auger-Aliassime.
What did Novak Djokovic do with his Olympic prize money?
As reported by Kurir, Djokovic earned €200,000 (£172,000) in prize money from the Serbian Government for his success.
And the publication added that the 24-time Grand Slam winner has decided to donate the money to humanitarian causes.
Novak Djokovic fully deserving of Olympic gold
Djokovic was clearly never thinking about the money during his Olympic efforts in Paris, where he didn’t drop a single set.
And that was no mean feat given the opponents he faced, namely French Open and Wimbledon champion Alcaraz.
He also made it past Stefanos Tsitsipas and Musetti in the quarter-finals and semi-finals respectively, along with the small matter of Rafael Nadal.
Tennis fans loved Djokovic’s wild final celebrations, with the Serbian unable to contain his emotions after his medal-winning display.
It represented the perfect revenge win for the 37-year-old, who had only just lost to Alcaraz at Wimbledon.
