Aryna Sabalenka has been enjoying a lighthearted competition with Novak Djokovic on social media, engaging in a playful dance battle that has captured the attention of tennis fans. The world number one, known for her energetic celebrations, has been exchanging dance moves with Djokovic, creating an entertaining rivalry off the court.
Following her semifinal victory at Roland-Garros, Sabalenka was asked about the ongoing challenge and whether she believes Djokovic will have extra motivation against Jannik Sinner. Laughing, she responded, “I’m excited to see what he’s gonna come up with next.” She then joked about turning the dance-off into an international poll, suggesting that Serbian fans might overwhelmingly support Djokovic in the contest.
The friendly exchange between the two stars has added a fun dynamic to the tournament, with fans eagerly awaiting Djokovic’s next move. Sabalenka’s enthusiasm for the challenge highlights her charismatic personality and ability to bring entertainment beyond her powerful performances on the court.
This is what she said:
“I’m excited to see what he’s gonna come up with next. We have to ask on social media, who is doing better, Aryna or Novak? We’ll see. He’ll probably repost it and there’s a lot of Serbians so probably I’m gonna lose it. Let’s make it an international quiz. Like no Serbians allowed to pick him”
As both players prepare for their respective finals, the dance battle continues to be a lighthearted subplot to the intense competition at Roland-Garros. Whether Sabalenka or Djokovic claims victory in their matches, their off-court rivalry is keeping fans engaged in a unique way.
