Like every other player in Australia right now, Djokovic is in a two-week quarantine. But unlike everyone else, he's got a balcony and a suite in Adelaide, and he's making good use of it.

The world No. 1 has been engaging with fans and friends, from a distance, and his balcony antics have become a full-fledged attraction as most of his Adelaide colleagues have stayed under the radar.

First, a fan came by to say hello, then two children showed off their tennis skills for him, and most recently, a crowd appeared to do a traditional Serbian dance and show their support.

The 33-year-old even did an interview on 102.3 Adelaide from his balcony.

"This may be the first interview I've done where I can see the host, but I can't be with him," Djokovic said, calling from a phone but waving from the balcony.

The sightings of other players has been rare but Rafael Nadal's balcony turns out to be not far from Djokovic's.

At the Australian Open, which begins on February 8, Djokovic will be looking to defend his tile and come one Grand Slam closer to Nadal's record of 20.
