-They are very passionate fans. It can be complicated sometimes. I’ve been in situations where they haven’t been supportive, but I’ve also been through difficult times. Of course, you always want to be the one receiving support or at least want to feel a neutral atmosphere on the field. This is not possible when we play against a French tennis player. We have to be ready to fight,” Djokovic said, according to Puntodebreak.com.
The Serbian tennis player commented on the fans’ behavior towards Belgian David Goffin. He faced Frenchman Giovanni Mpiche Pericard.
– I watched some moments of Goffin’s match, and it is true that in certain moments the fans were noisy and misbehaved, but this is part of sports. It’s something that also happens in football and basketball. He added: “I agree with the players who rebel against that.”
