Thousands of Serbs welcome Djokovic home
Thousands of Serbs cheered Novak Djokovic on his return after winning the Australian Open.
The reception took place on Saturday in front of Belgrade's City Hall with 10,000 flag-waving fans.
The 20-year-old Serb defeated Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the Melbourne final.
Djokovic also defeated top-ranked Roger Federer in the semi-finals and was the first Serb man to win a singles Grand Slam.
"This year my goal is one of the first two spots in the world," third-ranked Djokovic said before the reception.
