Novak Djokovic goes on a medal hunt with Nina Stojanovic

In the end, it became 16 couples who served in mixed doubles at the Olympic Games. And the top singles in the world for women and men have named. Ashleigh Barty could have a better chance. On the one hand, because she has already been eliminated in singles and only has ambitions in doubles with Astra Sharma. Barty will start with John Peers, opening against Nadia Podoroska and Horacio Zeballos.

Novak Djokovic has chosen Nina Stojanovic as a partner - or vice versa. The two Serbian representatives Luisa Stefani and Marcelo Melo from Brazil. By the way, Kristina Mladenovic and Nicolas Mahut are in first place, followed by Stefanos Tsitsipas and Maria Sakkari. The latter open against Gabriela Dabrowski and Félix Auger-Aliassime from Canada.

It won't be easy for the German representation: Kevin Krawietz and Laura Siegemund face Bethanis Mattek-Sands and Rajeev Ram. They go into the race for precious metal as number three.
