Tension at the Rome ATP, hit with a bottle on the head, Novak Djokovic falls to the ground
The debut of the Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic in the Internazionali BNL tournament that takes place in Italy was relatively quiet, as he got rid of the Frenchman Corentin Moutet in two sets, with the results 6-3 and 6-1.
However, an incident was recorded as Djokovic was leaving the court in Rome, shortly after signing autographs for some fans.
As the Serbian was about to enter the tunnel leading to the dressing room, Nole fell to the ground, hit by a plastic water bottle coming from the stands.
The number 1 of the world fell to the ground and immediately the security forces intervened, who started looking for the author of the attack.
A video posted online shows doctors and the tournament supervisor tending to the world No.1.
Meanwhile, Djokovic’s press conference was canceled after the incident. In an announcement from the tournament organizers, it is said that Nole has undergone the necessary medical intervention and has left the Foro Italico to return to the hotel.
“His condition is not a concern”, the statement underlined.
