Novak Djokovic's Gold Medal Quest: Paris Olympics 2024

Novak Djokovic, 24-times Grand Slam winner, will compete at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Despite recent knee surgery and a withdrawal from the French Open, the 37-year-old Serbian aims to secure his first Olympic gold. Dusan Lajovic will also represent Serbia in the tournament at Roland Garros.

Novak Djokovic will compete at this year's Olympic Games in Paris, the Olympic Committee of Serbia has announced. The 24-times Grand Slam winner will be attending his fifth Olympics since his first in 2008 when he won a bronze medal.

The 37-year-old had knee surgery last month after he was forced to pull out of the French Open with an injury sustained in a fourth-round win that cast doubt over his chances of playing at Wimbledon and at the Paris Games. World number three Djokovic will look to end his title drought in 2024 after winning three out of the four Grand Slams last year as he chases an elusive Olympic gold medal at the Paris Games in which Spain's Rafa Nadal will also compete.

Dusan Lajovic, ranked 56th, will also play for Serbia in the July 27-Aug. 4 Olympic tournament at Roland Garros.
