Novak Djokovic had a hilarious response to a member of the crowd jeering during his third-round win over Tomas Machac.
During the match, Djokovic grew increasingly frustrated by members of the crowd at Rod Laver Arena calling out when the players were preparing to serve and yelling ‘out’ during live points.
During his on-court interview with Andrea Petkovic, Djokovic was able to laugh at the exchanges with the attendee after prevailing 6-1, 6-4, 6-4.
The exchange started when one of the guilty crowd members shouted, “Marry me Novak” during the interview.
Stopping mid-answer, Djokovic replied: “Sorry mate, I have a wife.
“We can have a drink though.
“Maybe you’ve had a few already.”
Keeping the joke going, Petkovic added: “Shall we set up a date?”
With a befuddled look on his face, Djokovic conjured the last laugh.
“Um, listen I’m happy to have a drink with him now that the match is over. I think we can reflect nicely on what we said to each other during the match,” he said.
