ATP Staff
World No.1 Novak Djokovic was named the Laureus World Sportsman of the Year for the second year in a row. The Serb was on hand in Berlin to accept his award, dedicating it to Formula One driver Niki Lauda and footballer Johan Cruyff. Djokovic topped fellow star athletes Stephan Curry, Lewis Hamilton, Usain Bolt, Jordan Spieth and Lionel Messi for the award.
"He had a great year again," said Djokovic's coach Boris Becker, a Laureus Academy member. "He's played 88 matches, has won 82, He won three out of the four Grand Slams, reached the final of the French Open, he’s won seven other tournaments. Very few players, if any, had a year like that."
