«Breaking News» Novak Djokovic hands out donuts, visits a museum and does the floss in US Open trophy tour

Novak Djokovic swapped his racket for donuts as the men's 2018 US Open champion took to the streets of New York City as part of his trophy tour.

The Serb, who overcame Argentine powerhouse Juan Martin del Potro in straight sets to win his third title at Flushing Meadows, was more than happy to show off his latest silverware across the city.

When he was not handing out donuts to fans in a metro station downtown, he showed off the trophy inside the American Museum of Natural History.

Novak Djokovic was all smiles as he handed out donuts to fans in a New York metro station

The Serb was fresh from celebrating his US Open title and his 14th singles title of his career

The donuts were warmly received and it was only part of Djokovic's busy day round New York

Having struggled earlier in the year, Djokovic put injury behind him and found the form that saw him become one of the game's greatest in recent years. 

With Rafa Nadal and Roger Federer expected to clean up the slam titles, it is testament to Djokovic that he left New York with two - Wimbledon and the US Open - in his hands. 

Victory on Sunday night inside a packed-out Arthur Ashe Stadium saw him claim his 14th career men's singles title. 

The trophy had a tour of major landmarks such as the American Museum of Natural History

But while Djokovic took to public transport, brushed up on his history and joined in with a famous 'floss' dance with some local children outside in the rain, women's champion Naomi Osaka showed off her maiden slam title inside a TV studio.

Her victory over Serena Williams on Saturday was marred by the former world No 1's ferocious verbal attack on chair umpire Carlos Ramos.

Osaka, who was up a set on Williams, saw the match descend into chaos midway through the second set when her opponent was warned for coaching, docked a point for smashing her racket then docked an entire game for calling Ramos a thief and a liar.

He was joined on NBC's TODAY show by women's singles champion Naomi Osaka on Monday

But while Osaka was overcome with emotion and sadness at the manner of how the evening ended, she cut a much more relaxed and happy figure as she was interviewed with her trophy on television.

At just 20, Osaka's life looks set to change immeasurably following her first slam title.

She is likely to reap the dividend from being a major international achiever from the hugely lucrative Asian market.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
