Novak Djokovic was putting up a masterclass on the court on Saturday as he notched up his 100th win at Wimbledon. However, it was his 7-year-old daughter, Tara, who stole the show with her dance moves.

This year at the Wimbledon, Djokovic has performed a dance – pump it up – to celebrate his victory. On Saturday, he was asked to explain what it was.

“It’s called ‘pumpa’ in our language and pump it up in English. There’s a song with my kids," Djokovic said.

And then he quickly spotted Tara dancing to the pop song.

“And look, my daughter is doing it right now. You want to show it, darling? You want to show how it goes? She’s the master! It’s a little tradition we have right now so hopefully we can keep going so we can keep pumping in Wimbledon," Djokovic said.

As Tara explained how to perform the dance, the crowd at the venue erupted in unison.

The song was released by Belgian artist Danzel in 2004.

Last year, Djokovic would pretend playing a violin following his victories.

Djokovic defeated Miomir Kecmanovic to advance to the fourth round of the year’s third Grand Slam tournament. It was his 100th win at the competition which has put him in an elite company featuring Martina Navratilova and Roger Federer to have done so.

“Any history that I make in my favorite tournament, I’m blessed," Djokovic said after the match.

Djokovic is searching for his 25th Grand Slam title of what has been a storied career. He next faces No. 11 Alex de Minaur.
