Novak Djokovic suffered against Luca Nardi by all means during the third round of the Indian Wells Masters 1000. As the Serbian not only got past the shameless Italian player, he also went through difficult moments in the match.
One of them is one of the strangest points remembered in recent times. After Nardi narrowly won the first set 6-4 to set the match on fire, Djokovic began his recovery in search of the third round with a break in the second. But even then he was not immune to the occasional hot flash.
In 2-0 up and break point match, Djokovic made the first serve. Nardi, believing the ball was about to leave, stopped his footwork, although he casually returned the ball. It passes the network, but Djokovic, after seeing the attitude of his rival, believed that the serve was not good.
however, Neither the chair umpire nor the linesman said the previous ball was bad., so Nardi rushes out for Djokovic’s casual drop shot to hit a forehand from the ground past the Serbian. Logically, since he never considered the serve to be bad, The chair umpire awarded the point to the Italian, causing a break for Nardi.
This caused a Djokovic’s rage, considering that Nardi stopped at that point. However, the chair umpire’s decision was clear: game for Nardi amid strong protests from the world number 1.
