This Is Hearts Breaking: Tennis Top Star Novak Djokovic Found Death In Sewmming Pool….

Stepping out to watch the Gentlemen’s Singles final between Carlos Alcaraz and Tenn, the Grand Slam winner was joined by fellow tennis player, Justin Gimelstob. Notably absent from Centre Court was Andre’s wife of 23 years and fellow Wimbledon legend, Steffi Graf.

Andre and Steffi – who married in 2001 – were first introduced at Wimbledon in 1992, so the grounds hold a lot of special memories for them. Together, they share two children – a daughter, Jaz, and a son, Jaden.

Less than 24 hours before he arrived at Centre Court, Andre had posted the most adorable tribute to Steffi.

Posting on Instagram, the father-of-two shared a video in which he googled Steffi’s many achievements. Captioning it with a love heart emoji, fans were touched by the gesture.

“I just love how much you admire her in every way. She was my all-time favourite growing up,” wrote one. “Steffi is the greatest of all time!” noted a second. Meanwhile, a third replied: “Proud husband there!! Legend.”

And some of the very best to pick up a racket have claimed Olympic glory, with the likes of Steffi Graf, Venus and Serena Williams, and Rafael Nadal all gold medallists.

However, since the sport was reintroduced in 1988, there have been a few surprise winners – and for some, Olympic gold has been the biggest success of their careers.

We take you through the seven Olympic singles champions who struck gold but have been unable to win a Grand Slam title.

1988: Miroslav Mecir
The first men’s singles gold medallist of the modern era, Mecir’s achievement at the 1988 Games in Seoul is largely forgotten due to the ‘Golden Slam’ Graf completed that summer.

The Czech star was the third seed in Seoul and defeated No 1 seed Stefan Edberg in the semi-final, before overcoming No 2 seed Tim Mayotte in four sets to take home the gold medal.
