Novak Djokovic battles young tennis fan during practice (Australian Open 2012)

[Crosby4hyg]

Djokovic seems like a genuinely good guy. Tomic would've been crushing first serves at her.

[kevriley15]

Federer would have made her hit with a Wilson.

[StabbyPotato]

@kickmeout1 loooooooooooooooooool :)

[preethibangre]

id do anything to talk to him

[zoe67909442]

What a nice guy

[trevawright]

Haha the comment underneath mine

[kickmeout1]

he wasnt even playing his hardest if i was him i woulda belted the ball straight at her face then yelled COMEONNNNN!!!!!

[Nitarey]

im in love him! *.*

[dhirake]

Awwwwieee.. Super duper cute...!!'

[GaryMiller072]

Super like! What a graceful backhand Sasha.

[henrychannn]

Such a humble guy

[bassproshops7]

i wanna play with her

[rankich]

Hi all, it is Sasha's Mum. Thanks for all your comments. To answer some of your questions folks:

1) Nole is just a very good person who has time for his fans. I could not believe it when he called Sasha on court! No, Sash does not have rich and famous parents (which would help, playing this sport!)

2) No, Sash is not a Federer fan! She just likes hes slice BH.

3) THanks ldshinod, for redirecting to Rankich (Sasha's channel). I will try to put more videos soon

[Poihaps]

Nice guy

[wertretwerdfghsdfh]

Good on him!

[lulu231084]

Djoko - true legend!!!

[slampro99]

[MillieRose6]

[MRcool14153]

[italkcrab]

A SLICE BACKHAND?? Obviously a Federer fan tryna kick Nole's ass... :P

[LepiMario]

6 persons disliked this video!?

Why???

[lgilreath]

Djokovic is quickly becoming my favorite tennis player of all time

[jaymanutd13]

What a legend

[xXn0bBiEXx]

Mum: go on ask him

Kid: okay

Some random old lady: DESTROY HIM!!!!

[VincentViolence]

I love how excited all these people got over a little girl and a man playing with a ball and racket...Yet playing with a girl with your balls and your racket is illegal. HAHA. Sorry. Nice video.

[curseblazing]

This guy is so down to earth

[Watchthisspot1]

check out the shirt incident on my channell

[mousavi128]

Love those ethics

[venedith666]

what a top bloke this guy is. With all his money and fame, he is still down to earth enough to make a random little girl's day. Truly, this is how a real champion acts

[MrEnvyGaming]

Guys search "Rankich" in Youtube this is the little girls mothers youtube channel. She posted a couple of videos on the girl playing tennis. She is amazing. + i am her cousin :D

[t88boost]

itd be funny if he hit a monster forehand right at her forehead n u saw the 'w' from the tennis ball imprinted on her head...

[MrFattyfatfatboy]

the one thing about Australia is every 2nd person is either Serbian or croation and they dont fight(most of the time) im Ausi but my boss is a serb who used to be in Govt when it was Yugoslavia ,then he went to russia and they tried to kill him, now he is in charge of Australian Defence accords and accounts and drives around Washington im a limo with an Australian flag but both him and his driver Branco are Serbs.

[Globox822]

@MrFattyfatfatboy Yes we people from Ex Yugoslavia are odd bunch

[polychronio]

nole is a good man ^^

[bratzsook33]

Oh god I love this man. King of tennis and banter.

[capoman1]

This is golden.

[Bayubadu]

she`s so cute kid :)

[Deltamaster1965]

A great champ with a great heart !

[3253Ostridge]

Used to be a ball boy and had the pleasure of being on court with him. Top bloke.

[spoilt02]

This is amazingly awesome!!

[FizahA02]

Had an aww moment when saw this! Thank u! :)

[PAMV9]

[vannybooboo2]

[milosd23]

Nole pokaozao si da si veliki covek i da nisi poludeo od tolikog novca, svaka cast SRBINE samo napred

[hahahah987again]

Novak seems like a really nice guy! Good on him and the lucky youngster! :)

[007therealjamesbond]

He's a great guy

[dulebox]

little Sasha has a talent...

now,

as that might give you a head start, hard work will take you distances...

I wish her that she has that too in her...

good luck to Sasha, and of course Novak...

:)

idemooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!

[michael21031972]

Kids mustn't be rich to play with Djokovic!!!



[Shadowboost]

What a great sport. If it was me, I'd crush her soul for the lulz

[marko93ize]

Novak is king :)

[nogermsplease]

How did the kid get even near Nole? Probably rich\famous parents.

[ldshinod]

@nogermsplease Not the case at all.

She was just one of us audience who were watching Nole practiced.

Then her mom randomly challenged Nole and he smiled, nodded, and like "OK, come on court".

And there she was! On court with the Champ :)

[astrospace23]

@ldshinod i think you are lying.

[nikanj]

I was hoping he'd serve a 220kmph scorcher and shout "COME ON!"

[goodcommentguy]

LOL isn't she using Rafa's racket? Very nice. haha

[RobertLedineWien]

novace druze imas li vremena za porodicu hahhahha,car si majke mi moje, i dusa od coveka.takvog te volimo kad za svakog imas vremena.bog ti dao zdravlja i srece

Lucky girl who was playing with him

[ninaco11]

[theatlantean3]

adorable........i'm not a big djokovic fan, but this was really cool.........

[DTysonator]

That was a very nice behind the scenes moment :). Thank you for sharing it with us!

[mrcamacho999]

What a humble champions never seen this before from a guy with so much succes...

[sashmuscle]

Seems like a very down to earth man, especially for a champion.

[VTMProd]

All future tennis players learn from this guy.

[amravi89]

how do u get to meet him like this?!

[crookDDD]

novak just got rocked

[Elmaz313]

Nice job..Very cute

[biozamadotcom]

He's so good with people.

[Taiizor]

So who won!?

[vjelena20]

[LaRoseNoir5]

HOW COULD YOU NOT LOVE HIM!!!!!

[skidstung]

thats like a once in a lifetime experience. LUCKY!!!!

[hercegovac]

Amazing

[twilight12309]

Novak is so cute not to mention a beast of a tennis player too and very funny!!

[Fizmoo]

Lmao, lost against a 7 year old girl, what a loser!!

[Fizmoo]

@Fizmoo sarcastic comment before I get all the fanboys on me!

[XConstantinopelX]

He's a mild and funny person. This is why i really adore him. A true sportsman from the community.

[stoox006]

Novak is u true champion in every aspect. A complete human being and the best tennis player in the world!

[peachwalls]

so sweet <3 nole is a great sport

[bebo8087]

awwwwwwwwwww shoo sweet <3

[Visuder]

damn she's good for shes age really! But well done by Novak, I think every top tennis players are really nice, compared to other sports such as Football and Ice hockey. The top player of those are in the field so angry, and hardly putting any effort to fans. Tennis in the other hand has way different system, and I like it =)

[thetinalyons]

Novak told Jim Courier she was 12 years old. She's clearly half that.

[TheBastovan]

tennis with human face :)

[rankich]

No it was not me who said this about trophy. I said to Nole that Sasha is his No 1 fan and she will be No.1 one day. I also said that if he let her to play with him she might beat him. He replied "lets see" and let her in the court.

[ldshinod]

@rankich Halo! So you're Sasha's mom?? :)

I was the girl next next to Sasha (I was in front of you)!

Really? I thought it was you who joked that she should have his trophy, and Sasha innocently replied "I already got trophies" haha

I distinctly remember bcs that made me and my friend laughed :D

[djuraivan]

@rankich i bice cim je nase gore list.

[rankich]

Thanks for posting this video! Nole is the true champion and my girl will treasure this experience for all her life. No one has ever done anything like this for their fans. It was very generous of Nole to allow this to happen when he was concentrating on his practice.

[moretolife777]

That's why I love him. so sweet:)

[TheOrnitorinca]

1:18 LOL!

[TheOrnitorinca]

1.18 LOL!

[96miljan]

So cute!

[1Ljubica]

Nole is a great champion - always has time for his fans - especially kids.

[bhrgottalent]

@1Ljubica lol - "especially kids" :')
