He’s shared that whichever brand he gets involved in, his non-negotiable is that he has to be passionate about it.

Novak revealed to Business Traveller: “I’ve personally refused to involve myself in a lot of different businesses and represent different products in the last two decades, mainly because I cannot represent something that I don’t believe in, that is not in line with me and my values. Wellness and well-being [are] the biggest passions of mine, next to tennis and sports and education.”
