Tennis ace Novak Djokovic's wife and staggering net worth amid 'retirement' talk
The Wimbledon quarter finalist is considered one of the greatest tennis players of all time and unsurprisingly, his bank balance matches his incredible achievements Novak Djokovic is no stranger to Wimbledon's Centre Court, winning the tournament seven times and now he's taking on Italian and 22nd seed Flavio Cobolli in the quarter finals as he attempts to lift the famous trophy once more. On Monday, BBC tennis commentator John McEnroe jokingly suggested the legend could "retire on the spot" if he played another set as badly as his opening one against Alex de Minaur in the fourth round, which he lost 6-1. But the Serbian went onto storm the match and has previously said he feels he has more Grand Slam wins to achieve, with 2028 widely marked a possible year for his retirement from the game. Whether he lifts the Wimbledon title this year or not to receive a £3million prize, Novak is already considered one of the greatest tennis players of all time. ] One of only three men to have achieved a career Golden Slam, which means winning all four global Grand Slam tournaments as well as the Olympic gold medal, his net worth is staggering... READ MORE: Novak Djokovic names two 'favourites' to win Wimbledon after learning quarter-final opponent Married to Jelena Djokovic with two children, Stefan and Tara, the 38-year-old has a whopping netted £138million in prize money for singles and doubles tournaments around the globe in the course of his tennis career. As well as Grand Slam wins, he has 40 ATP 1000 titles and he is the only player to complete the Career Golden Masters by winning all ATP 1000 tournaments of the tennis calendar - twice. But Novak's net worth is far higher, at £193million. This includes huge brand deals - the player was sponsored by Adidas until 2009 before signing a ten-year deal with Sergio Tacchini. In 2012, he penned a five-year brand ambassador deal with Uniqlo that was reportedly worth just under £7m-a-year and in 2017, he ended his deal with Uniqlo and signed with Lacoste as a brand ambassador instead. The list of marquee brands affiliated with Djokovic also includes the likes of Mercedes-Benz and Seiko. Between June 2018 and June 2019 alone, he earned an astonishing £40million from sponsorships. The entrepreneur has a passion for food, once owning a vegan restaurant in Monte Carlo, Monaco and creating a line of nutritional food products. And the Serb's business Family Sport has his relatives onboard, focusing on hospitality but also involved in real estate, events and sports wear. The UNICEF Good Will Ambassador likes to give back too when it comes to his money - The Novak Djokovic Foundation is a non-profit organisation which aims to help kids from disadvantaged backgrounds. Since its inception in 2007, the charity has built 73 preschools, trained over 2,000 teachers and impacted over 56,500 children.

A beloved Hong Kong film has ranked fourth place in the New York Times' 100 best movies of the 21st century
We all love a good list, and the New York Times has recently dropped a banger. They rounded up over 500 influential directors, actors, and big names from Hollywood and all over the world to vote on the best film released since 2000, and gathered the results to give us a list of the best 100 movies of the 21st century – and a Hong Kong film ranked within the top 10. Out of the many stellar films picked by industry experts, such as City of God, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, The Favourite, and Y Tu Mamá También, Wong Kar-wai's In the Mood for Love has been ranked as the fourth best movie made within this century. The smouldering movie, filled with silent longing, cigarette smoke, and repressed desire, is undoubtedly the most widely known of Wong's works around the world. It also helps that a moody, charming Tony Leung Chiu-wai and the beautiful Maggie Cheung, clad in a rotation of the best cheongsam dresses to ever be captured on film, are there to grace viewers' screens for an hour and 40 minutes. Director Sofia Coppola was among the names who voted for In the Mood for Love, saying of her choice: 'It really blew my mind that you could make films … as a poetic medium that doesn't have to spell everything out.' Another Hong Kong-related mention to make the list is Ang Lee's martial arts epic Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, starring the inimitable Chow Yun-fat and Michelle Yeoh, which ranked at number 16. Notably, the only other animated movie in the top 10 spots is Hayao Miyazaki's Spirited Away, a fantastical adventure that deals with the loss of innocence, bravery, and humans' corruption of nature, all wrapped up in spellbindingly gorgeous visuals and a stellar soundtrack. Topping the New York Times' 100 best movies of the century is Bong Joon-ho's 2019 black comedy thriller Parasite. For those that have yet to see it – and there are probably very few of you out there – the Oscar-winning picture follows a poor Korean family that worms their way into the lives of a wealthy household, in an unsettling but at times wildly funny social satire. See below for the list of top 10 movies, and visit the New York Times for the full list. 10 best movies of the 21st century, according to the New York Times: Parasite by Bong Joon-ho, 2019 Mulholland Drive by David Lynch, 2001 There Will Be Blood by Paul Thomas Anderson, 2007 In the Mood for Love by Wong Kar-wai, 2001 Moonlight by Barry Jenkins, 2016 No Country for Old Men by Ethan Coen and Joel Coen, 2007 Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind by Michel Gondry, 2004 Get Out by Jordan Peele, 2017 Spirited Away by Hayao Miyazaki, 2002 The Social Network by David Fincher, 2010
