It is obvious that the arrival of the world. No. 1 has made Banjaluka citizens very happy, not only in the
National Tennis Complex but in the city of Banjaluka as well.
The Nole mania was in evidence on the tennis courts of the Srpska Open when the world No. 1 appeared
one the premises of the the tennis complex just before noon. Everyone wanted to get close to Novak
Đoković and take a picture with him so the entrance to the Centre Court simply did not have enough
room for everyone who wanted to make a memory of this day.
The best tennis player in the world said 'hi' to children who responded with an applause that lasted a
couple of minutes and you could hear them all cheering for Nole before the practice session.
There is no doubt that Đoković likes the attention he’s been getting in Banjaluka. Despite the fact that
he’s been getting the same attention across the globe, Republika Srpska’s hospitality has showed just
how much Novak’s arrival to Banjaluka means to the city.
