Novak Djokovic undergoes pre-season training in Marbella, Spain ahead of 2024 campaign start at United Cup

World No. 1 Novak Djokovic has been training in Marbella, Spain ahead of the 2024 ATP Tour season.

Djokovic put together a phenomenal season this year, winning 56 of his 63 pro tour matches and bagging seven ATP titles. The Serb won three of the four Major tournaments this year — the Australian Open, French Open and the US Open. He also won titles at the ATP Finals, Cincinnati Open and the Paris Masters.

The 36-year-old has shown no signs of loosening his vice-like grip on the men's tour. He will be keen on ironing out the chinks in his game to take on the young guns next year.

Novak Djokovic was recently spotted at an undisclosed academy in Marbella — his residence since 2020. The Serb traded hits with a few amateur players on hardcourts as per stories doing the rounds on Instagram.

The 24-time Major winner was eager to polish his net game as evidenced in a video shot by a fan on the microblogging site. Djokovic also donned a black arm sleeve on his right elbow, suggesting that he wants to protect himself from freak injuries.

The Serb will open his 2024 ATP Tour season at the United Cup where he will be joined by youngsters such as Olga Danilovic and Hamad Medjedovic. Djokovic will be hopeful of using the tournament as a springboard for his Australian Open defense later in January.
