World number one Novak Djokovic was not a happy man on Saturday night (AEST) in Monte Carlo.
World number one Novak Djokovic was left seeing red as he unleashed a blistering spray on a fan in the middle of a match.The Serbian superstar’s 2024 struggles continued after he was knocked out of the Monte Carlo Masters by Casper Ruud in the semi-finals.The 10th-ranked Norwegian beat the world number one 6-4, 1-6, 6-4 for a first win in six attempts against the record 24-time Grand Slam title winner .
The 36-year-old bounced back emphatically to wipe his opponent off the court and level the match up at one-set apiece. After missing a regulation forehand, while down 3-4, he turned his attention to an individual sitting behind the baseline and unleashed an expletive spray.Watch the expletive outburst in the video player aboveThings didn’t get any better for the Serbian who once again fell short in his fourth event of the season.
“There are positives to take away for sure, but I’m used to a really high standard in terms of expectations and results,” he said.Djokovic has played in only four events this season but expects to pick up his pace as his clay court campaign heads to Madrid and Rome before a return to Roland Garros.He arrived in Monte Carlo having skipped Miami after a shock loss to 123rd-ranked Luca Nardi at the Indian Wells Masters.
