Novak Djokovic Criticizes Wimbledon Crowd For 'Disrespectful' Behavior

On Monday, seven-time Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic voiced his discontent with the crowd’s conduct during his match against Holger Rune. He felt the extended cheers for Rune’s winners and his own errors were disrespectful, especially after defeating the 21-year-old in the fourth round of Wimbledon 2024. When asked by the on-court interviewer about the crowd’s support for Rune, Djokovic responded, “I know they were cheering for Rune but that's an excuse to also boo. I have been on the tour for more than 20 years. I know all the tricks.”
