Novak Djokovic Struck by Bottle After 6-3, 6-1 Win, Advances to Third Round at Italian Open
May 10, 2024, 10:38 PM
Novak Djokovic, the World No. 1 tennis player, was struck in the head by a water bottle while signing autographs after his second-round victory at the Italian Open in Rome. The incident occurred as Djokovic was leaving the court, having just secured a win over Corentin Moutet with scores of 6-3, 6-1. Following the incident, Djokovic required medical attention and was treated at the Foro Italico hospital. Initial reports suggest that the bottle incident was accidental, likely slipping from a spectator's backpack. Djokovic has since left the hospital and returned to his hotel, and his condition is not considered serious. He will face Tabilo next in the third round, having won 11 of the last 12 games in his recent matches. Djokovic had also missed the previous tournament in Madrid.
