Although Novak Djokovic may be concentrating on capturing another Grand Slam, the tennis player took a minute on Wednesday to congratulate his wife Jelena on their tenth wedding anniversary. The 37-year-old wrote the most endearing poetry and confessed his love for his partner on Instagram, where he also shared a montage of old photos and never-before-seen footage from their personal book. Check out the video down below.

Ten years go fetch, ten years of yoga, ten years we stretch, and ten years of dogs. Ten years of you, the best part of me, ten years of flying, ten years at sea.” Ten years of tennis, ten years of balls, ten years of success, ten years of failure, he continued. I will always adore you, Jelena, and I have spent ten years as teammates and ten years together. I cherish you.”

Hours before Novak is scheduled to face Alex de Minaur on Centre Court in an attempt to advance to the men’s semifinal of Wimbledon, the post is made. After his match with Holger Rune this year, where he responded to people yelling “Ruuuune” all night long, Novak made headlines. In an extended chant that resembled booing, the audience were applauding Rune, a move that Novak called “disrespectful” to him.

Jelena and Novak are best friends from high school. When they were attending school in Serbia in the late 1990s, they initially crossed paths. Just a few years after Novak began his professional tennis career, they began dating in the 2000s. “Seeing her for the first time in her wedding dress, smiling and walking towards me,” Novak said, speaking exclusively to HELLO! about the moment Jelena went down the aisle. She had an angelic appearance. I was attempting to live in the present and commit it to memory. All I could think about was her, her smile, and our child. It was truly the ideal moment.”
