Doubles delight for Djokovic duo

Novak Djokovic opened his new partnership with younger brother Djordje in triumphant style as they won their debut doubles match at the China Open on Tuesday.

The Djokovic brothers chest-bumped and high-fived their way to a 7-6 (5), 6-7 (6), 10-5 victory over the China-New Zealand pairing of Gong Maoxin and Michael Venus.

It was the first time Novak, the singles world No 1, and Djordje, ranked No 1,502, have collaborated - and the younger sibling did his share of the damage with some savage forehands.
