Tennis superstar and devout Orthodox Christian Novak Djokovic celebrated Christmas with his family in Melbourne on Tuesday as he gears up for the 2025 Australian Open.
While most Christians celebrate Christmas Day on December 25, many of the Orthodox Christians around the world celebrate the birth of Jesus on January 7. 
Djokovic, who is aiming to claim his 25th career Grand Slam – and incredibly, his 11th title at Melbourne Park when the tournament begins on Sunday – posted shots of his Christmas celebration to social media.
Peace of God, Christ is born! Merry Christmas,’ he captioned the pics.
The first shot featured himself and wife Jelena in front of a Christmas tree. The second was similar, but included his two children, Stefan and Tara.
