While the thousands of fans watching may be the last thing on a player’s mind after winning Wimbledon, Novak Djokovic always takes the time to interact with fans.

After winning his 20th Grand Slam title and sixth Wimbledon trophy, the Serbian headed to the stands to embrace his team and celebrate another major victory. After briefly celebrating in his team's box he made his way back down to Centre Court, but not without pausing to take a quick selfie with one young boy. The young fan stood in utter shock after receiving the treasured photo with one of tennis' most iconic players.

Djokovic wasn't finished just yet. A moment later he made the day of one little girl, giving her the winning racquet. The girl was seen smiling from ear to ear after she was handed the amazing gift.

The 34-year-old defeated Matteo Berrettini in the Wimbledon final on Sunday, coming back from losing the first set. The world No. 1 has claimed all three major events played thus far in 2021 and will look to complete a Calendar Slam at next month's US Open.
