But on his run to the 2024 final, where he lost a second successive final to Carlos Alcaraz, Djokovic marked each win with a signature move.

Djokovic, 38, placed the frame of his racquet under his chin and held the handle out, pretending to play the violin.

The dad-of-two revealed the 2024 celebration was dedicated to his daughter Tara who had recently taken up violin lessons.

This year, though, the No6 seed has mixed things up.

Instead of playing the violin, Djokovic has been marking his victories in a new way.

After beating Alexandre Muller in round one and then Dan Evans in round two, he has performed a quick dance.

Djokovic pumps his arms and hands down, left, right and up while looking towards his box, including his wife Jelena and their two children.

And now he has explained the gesture.

Once again, it is a classy touch for his kids – Stefan, ten, and Tara, seven.

Djokovic explained: “It’s something between me and my children.

“We have a song, it’s called ‘Pump It Up’.

“I don’t know how many of you guys know that.

“It’s quite an old song. Good rhythm.

“So yeah, we’re pumping. We love pumping.

“We pump after every win. I don’t know the name of the artist. ‘Don’t you know, pump it up, you got to pump it up’. Disco song.”

The song was released by Belgian artist Danzel all the way back in 2004, peaking at No11 in the UK charts.

And Djokovic will be hoping to do plenty more pumping celebrations in SW19 as he chases a record 25th Grand Slam title.
