Yesterday, Novak Djokovic was eliminated from the US Open by hitting the ball on the referee’s neck. It’s hard for Nole fans to swallow this, forcing the Serbian player to speak up.

The Djokovic incident occurred after finishing game 11 in the first set of his match against Pablo Carreño Busta in round 4. After allowing his opponent to take a break to take a 6-5 lead, Djokovic was disappointed. The Serbian tennis player dropped the ball for the volunteers but used the ball to hit the ball, unfortunately for him the ball hit the rope referee’s neck at the back of the field.

The referee working on Djokovic’s match fell immediately and needed the care of medical personnel. After evaluating Djokovic’s behavior, the organizers of the US Open decided to disqualify him according to the Grand Slam rules.

Djokovic was eliminated after hitting the ball

Djokovic was quite disappointed by the decision of the referees to control and supervise the match. At first, the world’s No. 1 player said that his mistake was not great, nor did it cause serious harm to the referee. “He didn’t go to the hospital for this,” a camera that captured Djokovic’s words told the referees.

The Serbian player could not change the decision of the organizers of the US Open, so he left, even refusing to interview after the match. The organizers of the US Open decided to subtract all of Nole’s points and bonuses at the 2020 US Open.

Three hours after the incident, Djokovic accepted his disqualification and sent an apology to the US Open organizers, fans, and accepted responsibility for the incident. However, fans of the Serbian tennis player do not easily swallow the disqualification of their idols in an unexpected way.

Nole became the first individual player at the Grand Slam to be eliminated by reckless hitting regardless of the consequences.

Many Djokovic fans expressed their opposition to the organizers of the US Open on social media. Nole seemed concerned that the incident could get worse, so Nole sent a letter to fans, asking those who love him to accept the incident, without attacking the organizers or the female referee.

On his social media account, Nole wrote:

#NoleFam dear, thank you for your positive messages … Also remember that the referee who was hit by the ball last night also needs the support of our community. She did nothing wrong. I especially ask for your support and concern during this time. From now on, we are stronger and we overcome everything. Share the love with everyone. Europe I’m coming”.
