Australian Open: the very tense exchange between Djokovic and a spectator in Melbourne

Shouldn't have upset him... It's difficult to understand what triggered his anger, but the world number 1 had trouble with a spectator during his painfully won match against Alexei Popyrin in 3 hours and 11 minutes (6- 3, 4-6, 7-6, 6-3). A 30th victory in a row in his favorite Grand Slam which he has won 10 times. In the fifth game of the last set, at 2-2, the master of the place, not in his mood, did not hide his anger, frozen smile, facing a spectator as he said: “Come down and come tell me in face!”

The referee had to ask Djokovic to calm down and resume the flow of the match. The rant of the “Djoker” being greeted by a lot of whistles. In a press conference, the man with 24 Grand Slam titles said of the incident: "I tolerated most of the match, but at one point I had enough and I gave him asked if he wanted to come down and tell me to my face. Unfortunately for him, he didn't have the courage to go down. That's what I asked him. He apologized from afar and that’s all there is to say.”
