Wimbledon 2025: Novak Djokovic's Daughter Tara Mimics Her Father's ‘Pump It Up’ Celebration; Video

Novak Djokovic has been adding a personal touch to his Wimbledon campaign this year and it’s caught the attention of fans. While the Serbian legend had been mimicking playing the violin in earlier rounds, his celebrations have taken a fun turn in recent matches.

Following the win, Djokovic celebrated by pumping his fists downward, a gesture that caught the crowd’s attention. During his on-court interview, he was asked about the meaning behind this new celebration.

“It’s called ‘pumpa’ in our language (Serbian) and ‘pump it up’ in English,” Djokovic said about the celebration.

As he spoke, daughter Tara stood out once again by jumping in to perform the dance for the Centre Court crowd, much to their delight. Her impromptu performance earned loud cheers and even a proud round of applause from her older brother Stefan in the player’s box.

“It’s a little tradition we have right now,” Djokovic smiled. “So hopefully we can keep it going and keep pumping here at Wimbledon.”

Novak Djokovic chases history

The 38-year-old reached a special milestone on Saturday, earning his 100th win at the All England Club.

Djokovic defeated his Serbian compatriot Miomir Kecmanovic 6-3, 6-0, 6-4 in just an hour and 47 minutes and advanced to the fourth round of the championships.

With the win, Djokovic became only the third player in history - after Roger Federer and Martina Navratilova - to reach 100 match victories at the prestigious grass-court major.

Djokovic will face Australia’s Alex de Minaur in the fourth round. De Minaur booked his spot by defeating Denmark’s August Holmgren 6-4, 7-6 (5), 6-3 on Court 2.

Djokovic is chasing history on multiple fronts at Wimbledon 2025. A title here would mark his 25th Grand Slam crown - extending his all-time men’s record - and his eighth Wimbledon title, which would equal Roger Federer’s benchmark at the All England Club.

He’s also aiming to become the oldest man ever to win a Grand Slam, surpassing Ken Rosewall, who claimed the 1972 Australian Open at 37 years, 1 month, and 24 days.
