Novak Djokovic Confronts British Fans After Davis Cup Victory

Grand Slam record champion Novak Djokovic (36) clashed with British fans after Serbia’s quarter-final success at the Davis Cup in Malaga.

“There was disrespect throughout the game,” complained the world number one after his 6:4, 6:4 in the second singles against Cameron Norrie and confronted the supporters after the end of the game. The British fan group should “learn how to behave”.

The supporters tried to drown out Djokovic’s victory interview with drums after the end of the game. “I tried to talk and they deliberately started drumming to stop me from talking,” explained the world number one.

Djokovic continued: “It’s normal for fans to cross the line, but in the heat of the moment you also have to react and show that you won’t allow this kind of behavior.”

The spectators can “do whatever they want, but I will react to it,” Djokovic said. He had already felt disturbed by the British fans during the game and held his hand to his ear after every point he won in the second set.
