Novak Djokovic criticized Roland Garros fans after the winning match against Spaniard Alejandro Davidovich Fokin in the third round of the tournament – 7:6 (7:4), 7:6 (7:5), 6:2.
During the match, fans in the stands expressed their displeasure when the Serbian tennis player took a medical time-out at the end of the second set due to thigh pain. As he whistled from the stands, Djokovic sarcastically applauded the audience in response.
— I think most people come here to enjoy tennis or support a particular player. But there are people who like to boo everything you do. It’s something that I find disrespectful and frankly I don’t understand. But it is their right. They paid for the ticket. They can do whatever they want.
In fact, 99% of the time I am silent, but sometimes I object because I believe that when someone is disrespectful, they deserve an answer, Yahoo Sports quotes Djokovic.
In the fourth round of the tournament, Djokovic will face Pole Hubert Hurkach.
