Novak Djokovic (1987-), tennis player

"Novak is expected to arrive in Paris within a few days, although he will not be staying with us in the Olympic Village," a person in charge told reporters.

Djokovic also did not stay at the Olympic Village during the 2016 Rio Olympics. However, at the Tokyo Olympics, the 24-time Grand Slam champion opted to stay at the Olympic Village to experience the Olympic atmosphere in depth. He said, "I enjoyed every second of it, being in a place with more than 10,000 athletes, exchanging knowledge, life stories and things about sports, you don't get that experience anywhere else." Djokovic was one of the most popular athletes in Japan, with athletes from different countries and different sports approaching him for photos.

However, Djokovic's form has been more subdued this season. Last week he trained with Japan's Taro Daniel in Montenegro and enjoyed kayaking in the Adriatic. By contrast, his main rival Rafael Nadal not only played and reached the final at Bastad during the same period, but also arrived early to train in Paris.

Djokovic has always dreamed of winning an Olympic gold medal for Serbia. He has failed to be among the gold medal contenders in his four previous attempts, and this time he will try to realize that dream once again.
