Djokovic was born May 22, 1987 in Belgrade, Serbia, then Yugoslavia. He was born to father Srdjan and mother Dijana, and is the oldest of their three sons. His two younger brothers, Đorđe and Marko, are also tennis players with professional aspirations. He started playing tennis at the age of four, and was spotted by Yugoslav tennis legend Jelena Genčić at the age of eight, who stated "This is the greatest talent I have seen since Monica Seles." At twelve years old, he spent three years at Nikola Pilić's tennis academy in Munich, Germany, and at age fourteen, his international career began, winning European championships in singles, doubles, and team competition. He currently resides in Monte Carlo, Monaco and is coached by a former Slovak tennis player, Marián Vajda.
Djokovic speaks Serbian, Italian and English fluently and often gives interviews and press conferences in all three. He also speaks a bit of German. In 2008, he mentioned in several interviews that he wanted to learn French as he lives in Monte Carlo.
Djokovic is also known for his often humorous off-court impersonations of his fellow players, many of whom are his friends.
