Mike Tyson is not only passionate about boxing, but also loves tennis, so he often appears at major tournaments and is even an interview subject. Many stars in all fields often appear in the tennis stands, from Roland Garros to Wimbledon or the US Open. One of the famous figures present at this year’s US Open is boxing legend Mike Tyson, when this great boxer came to watch the match of American “prodigy” Coco Gauff. On that occasion, the steel fist revealed his favorite tennis player.

Mike Tyson said: “Tennis is a great sport, I’m a big fan of this sport. I love watching Novak Djokovic’s matches.” By the way, the legendary boxer gives some advice to all the kids who dream of becoming great in the sports world: “It takes time to blossom. That’s something you don’t accomplish at first.” Totally understand. Sports continue to influence and inspire me and my family. I just returned from Rome and visited the Colosseum.”

Mike Tyson’s favorite is Djokovic. In the tennis industry, the US Open is one of the four most anticipated Grand Slams. Flushing Meadows is “causing a storm” during this period, as thousands of fans flock to watch their favorite players compete on America’s splendid hard courts. Speaking of Djokovic, the Serbian champion overcame the first hurdle Alexandre Muller, recording his first victory in this 2023 tournament.

Nole passed the second round when facing Bernabè Zapata Miralles, the Serbian superstar won in 3 straight sets. The draw for the 36-year-old tennis player from Belgrade is considered by experts to be particularly soft. This was confirmed by the same official account of the US Open. This account published statistics regarding who is the ‘luckiest’ tennis player according to IBM analysis. On the other hand, before reaching the final, Djokovic will only meet Stefanos Tsitsipas and Casper Ruud, while all the other big names are on the other side of the bracket against Carlos Alcaraz, most notably Daniil Medvedev and Jannik Sinner.
