Novak Djokovic’s daughter Tara steals the show with ‘priceless’ moment after Australian Open win

Tara Djokovic, seven-year-old daughter of tennis legend Novak, has won hearts around the world for a “priceless” moment after her dad’s Australian Open quarter-final win over Carlos Alcaraz on Tuesday night.

Tara and nine-year-old brother Stefan are travelling with Novak and his wife Jelena to a major tournament for the first time this year.

The 24-time grand slam champion has often spoken about his dream of winning a major in front of his kids one day, and he might finally get the chance at Melbourne Park this week.

But to watch him do it, Novak might have to become the first men’s singles player in the Open era to beat the No.3, No.2 and No.1 seeds to claim a slam, with Alcaraz, Alexander Zverev and potentially Jannik Sinner currently sitting as his projected route to an 11th Australian Open title.

The kids have now made it through step one of that process but had to stay up way past their bedtime to get there.

“I am surprised that my kids are still here, I mean, I love you, thank you for supporting me, but it’s 1am; when are you going to sleep tonight?” Djokovic said to the crowd’s laughter during his on-court post-match interview with Jim Courier.

Cameras then cut to Djokovic’s family, where Tara was seen pointing to her watch in what was an adorable moment.

“You’re on the clock, Novak,” Australian Open wrote of the moment on social media.

“Tara Djokovic’s reaction to her dad’s late-night match is priceless.”

Fans across the globe have since flooded social media with their love for Tara after her cute reaction.

Novak was later pictured greeting his wife and kids with hugs in the Walk of Champions underneath Rod Laver Arena.

The legendary Serbian, 16 years Alcaraz’s senior, recovered from a set down to triumph 4-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-4 in an epic three-hour and 37-minute showdown.

After having his serve broken late in the first set to go down 4-5, Djokovic took a medical time-out to have his left thigh strapped.

The 37-year-old might have lost the first set after returning to the court, but the break allowed him to refocus for his charge at Alcaraz for the rest of the match.

After securing the victory just before 1am on Wednesday morning, the former world No.1 hugged coach Andy Murray.

“I just wish this match today was a final,” Djokovic said.

“One of the most epic matches I have played on this court, on any court really.

“If I lost the second set, I don’t know if I would continue playing.

“I felt better and better and managed to play a great couple of games to end out the second set.”

If Djokovic is able to win a record-extending 11th Australian Open title, it would make him the most successful singles player of all time.

The seventh seed is locked on 24 major titles, the same number as Margaret Court won during her singles career from 1960 to 1973.
