It was a tough day at the office for Novak Djokovic on Saturday, and that’s putting it mildly.
The world No. 1, playing in his first tournament since the U.S. Open, recently said that regaining his desire to be on court and enjoying himself—not winning Grand Slams or retaining his No. 1 ranking—were his top priorities.
Well he sure didn’t seem to be having fun, nor was he at all relaxed, during his 6-4, 6-4 semifinal loss to Roberto Bautista Agut.
After hitting a backhand wide to drop the first set, the Serb ferociously smashed his racket against the ground three times.
