Breaking news alert! Was this the extra extra motivation Djocovic pulled strength from to win Wimbledon? Fairytale wedding days after winning Wimbledon. Daily mail- Four days after winning Wimbledon and three days after reclaiming the No. 1 ranking, Novak Djokovic continued the greatest week of his life by marrying his longtime girlfriend Jelena Ristic at a seaside resort on the Adriatic. There was reportedly a tight lockdown around the upscale resort in Montenegro, which had been closed in the days leading up to the nuptials. Local media reports said employees, waiters and staff had to sign confidentiality agreements , while others had Djokovic and Ristic selling the photographic rights to their wedding, but donating all proceeds to charity. Among the confirmed attendees were Djokovic’s coach and six-time Grand Slam champion Boris Becker, Davis Cup teammate Janko Tipsarevic and his brother Marko Djokovic. Previous Serbian reports that Andy Murray would serve as Djokovic’s best man went unconfirmed. The wedding was held at Sveti Stefan, a resort with picturesque view of the Adriatic Sea. After defeating Roger Federer in a five-set classic on Centre Court, Djokovic told reporters he was closing this chapter of his life and looked forward to “spending time with my family and my future wife.” He dedicated the win to Ristic and their “future baby.” Ristic is due with the couple’s first child later this year.
