On his deathbed, Patriarch Pavle blessed Nole: They said, leave the room – then he opened his eyes

Novak wears a cross from the Hilandar Monastery as his lucky charm, while the blessing he received from late Serbian Orthodox Patriarch Pavle is especially important to him

Novak Djokovic’s mother, Dijana Djokovic, spoke in an interview with Sport Klub about her son and many details from his life. She revealed little-known details from Nole’s career and life, and a particularly striking one was the visit to Patriarch Pavle when he was treated at the VMA clinic.

“Novak always has with him a cross, a gift from Hilandar that he wears as his lucky charm, he is a believer. I also remember, we came to visit Patriarch Pavle while he was in the hospital, we came as a family, he was half asleep. A deacon who was there with the patriarch told us to go out and just as we were leaving, Patriarch Pavle opened his eyes which were sky blue, looked at Novak, and gave him a blessing that meant a lot to us. It was a gift from God that Novak will never forget!,” Diana said.

Interestingly, on the very day of Patriarch Pavle’s death, Novak won the Masters in Paris.
