Strip Djoker: Novak Djokovic goes half-nude at The Boodles

The Boodles is an oddly named grass-court exhibition event that serves as a tune-up for Wimbledon each year. There, stars align to hit a few balls and generally make fans' dreams happen.

And with that, the Wimbledon fortnight has arrived. If we should happen to suffer a bloody streaker, well, you'll know he or she had some inspiration from a tennis great.
