International Tennis Star Janko Tipsarevic - Oakley Rebel

International Tennis Star Janko Tipsarevic - Oakley Rebel


Janko Tipsarević is a true Oakley Rebel. Currently ranked in the ATP World Top 25, he's the third highest ranked male Serbian tennis player, after Novak Djokovic and Viktor Troicki. Tipsarevic was born in Belgrade, Serbia (then SFR Yugoslavia). His father, Pavle, is a professor; mother, Vesna, is a housewife. He has also a younger brother, Veljko. He finished high school and in 2006 completed university studies in Belgrade, studying Sports Management. His love of classic literature is often mentioned by commentators and the press as something unusual for a high-level athlete. He has a quotation, tattooed in Japanese, from Dostoyevsky ("Beauty will save the world", from The Idiot) on his left arm. He also has a Japanese tattoo on his right arm, which represent the first two letters of the names of his father, his mother, himself and his brother, in Katakana. According to US Open announcers Ted Robinson and John McEnroe, he also has a tattoo of a quote from Arthur Schopenhauer on his back.
