That’s nearly a 2.5% increase in a very short time, which debunks the common myth that Djokovic isn’t popular or well-liked. This surge proves that Djokovic is not just a tennis legend but a global icon who commands attention both on and off the court.

One of the key reasons behind the Serb’s massive following is how active he is on social media, particularly on Instagram. His stories are a hub of activity. Recently, Djokovic congratulated Qinwen Zheng on her win at the Olympics. He often uploads social media stories praising other athletes for their achievement, sometimes even when they are his opponents.

This makes his profile more dynamic and relatable, engaging fans from different sporting backgrounds. Whether he’s shouting out fellow athletes, sharing motivational quotes, or giving behind-the-scenes glimpses into his life, Djokovic knows how to keep his audience hooked and entertained.
