Video - Djokovic, 38 years old, and still magical: The split volley that electrifies the Athens crowd

Even at 38 years old, Novak Djokovic continues to push the boundaries of what's possible. Facing Lorenzo Musetti, the Serbian lit up the Athens final with a drop volley executed in a full split.

Despite the weight of the years, Novak Djokovic continues to deliver exceptional points wherever he goes. In front of the Athens crowd and under the watchful eyes of his family, the former world No. 1 pulled off an exceptional shot during the final against Lorenzo Musetti.

While serving at 2-2, 30-0 in the second set, the Serb took the initiative to rush the net on a forehand attack.

Musetti replied perfectly with a crosscourt backhand passing shot, but Djokovic's full flexibility then made the difference, as he placed an unplayable crosscourt drop volley, finishing in a full split.

Pure artistry!
