Novak Djokovic’s big Australian Open triumph Sunday over Andy Murray set off a round of celebrations back in his homeland of Serbia.

“I’m proud as a father who is in every way surpassed by the eldest son. Marko and Djordje will soon follow his steps. I’m sorry we were not able to be with our son in Melbourne like three years ago when he won his first Grand Slam trophy. I’m sure that Novak will get to the top of the ATP rankings till the end of this year,” said Srdjan Djokovic, Novak’s father.

Congratulations to Novak and his fans for a very impressive performance in Melbourne.

Djokovic is schedule to play in Rotterdam starting Monday, then Dubai on the 21st.

Here’s video the party atmosphere as fans braved the freezing temperatures to celebrate Novak’s second Grand Slam title:

U.S. is blacking out some of our favourite streaming sites. Haven’t they got more important things to do such as economy, security etc?

The first video was from Melbourne actually, as Djokovic went through post match press. You can see Rod Laver Arena in the background.
