Tom Brady gushes over Novak Djokovic's family at French Open
Novak Djokovic’s post-match celebrations at this year’s French Open warmed pal Tom Brady’s heart.
Taking to his Instagram Stories on Sunday after the Serbian superstar defeated Norway’s Casper Ruud in the men’s final to claim his 23rd Grand Slam title, Brady posted a congratulatory message to Djokovic, 36, and remarked how touching it was to see the support of his family.
“Congratulations my friend,” Brady wrote alongside a photo of the group celebrating at Roland Garros.

Brady is having quite the summer so far since retiring from the NFL in February after 23 prolific seasons.
The former Patriots and Buccaneers quarterback, 45, recently ventured to Walt Disney World in Florida with son Benjamin, 13, and daughter Vivian, 10, whom he shares with ex-wife Gisele Bündchen.
Though the Brady bunch certainly had a blast at the happiest place on earth, there’s one thrill ride that appeared to rattle the soon-to-be Fox Sports analyst.
“The happiest place on earth (until you realize your kids were lying about tower of terror being ‘mad chill’),” Brady remarked of the famed Hollywood Studios attraction on Instagram, where he posted a photo of himself screaming aboard the ride.
Brady told People earlier this month how he has a “little calendar” to keep track of the family’s plans as he and Bündchen, 42, navigate their first summer co-parenting following their divorce.
“I’ve got my little calendar right here,” the future Hall of Famer said. “We’re going to Disneyland tomorrow to celebrate because it’s the last day of school. Then they’re going with their mom for a couple of weeks to Brazil.”

Brady and Bündchen, who hails from Brazil, finalized their divorce in October after 13 years of marriage.
“We arrived at this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time spent together,” Brady said on social media at the time. “We are blessed with beautiful and wonderful children who will continue to be the center of our world in every way.”
In addition to Benjamin and Vivian, Brady also shares 15-year-old son Jack with his ex, actress Bridget Moynahan.
