Djokovic accuses Nori of bad behavior after reaching Italian Open quarterfinals

Rome. Novak Djokovic accused the Briton of unsportsmanlike conduct during his match after sealing a 6-3 6-4 quarter-final win over Cameron Norrie at the Italian Open. After reaching the quarter-finals of this tournament for the 17th time in a row, this Serbian player said that Nori behaved badly in this match many times. Even after Djokovic was serving points in the second set of the match, Norrie fired a ball that went into the 22-time Grand Slam champion’s shin. Djokovic also took issue with Norrie taking a ‘medical time-out’ just before the end of the match.

Djokovic said, “When I hit his shot, I also saw the replays. Perhaps you can say that he did not kill me intentionally.” He said, ”It was not just about this incident. He was doing everything that was allowed (but was against the spirit of the game) as soon as the match started. He is allowed to take medical time out. He is allowed to hit a player with the ball. He is allowed to say something after every point by targeting the opponent player. “He said,” As a player, we know that this is not the spirit of the game.
