Novak Djokovic He experienced a nightmare at his former second home, the center court of Rod Laver Arena at Melbourne Park. “One of the worst Grand Slams I’ve played, that I can remember,” he said minutes after losing to the Italian. Jannik Sinner 6-1, 6-2, 6-7 (6) and 6-3. The loss could have been more severe since he lifted a match ball in the third set tiebreak.
He opened a way of salvation that the Sinner, who was far superior, had closed. Djokovic Dropping his serve again (he couldn’t even hold the transalpine throughout the match), he found himself down 1-4 in the fourth set, en route to elimination, a fact that snapped his unbeaten streak. next which lasted 33 games in this tournament.
Surprised by his level (“I didn’t think he would play the first two sets so much”), he was more restrained than usual in his expressions. He didn’t seek to release the tension with some ball-striking war.
At least in appearance, as television cameras and microphones revealed that Djokovic had once again played the chair manager, in this case the French. Damien Dumusois.
The biggest incident of the game was his calling the referee’s attention, considering he was not acting well when it came to making sure the fans didn’t bother him between serves for not being quiet. “Are you going to do something or just sit there? Would you like a cup of tea?” he shouted at. Dumusois.
His demeanor was more dangerous when he went to his seat. Cameras caught the Serbian, and he vented his anger by hitting one of the side microphones hanging from the referee’s chair. A message that could be considered threatening by the chair umpire, who looked at him strangely. There is also a risk that the microphone will come loose and fly free, hitting someone.
Not learning Djokovic. He played it again.
