Novak Djokovic once again lost his temper in the US Open, almost a year after being disqualified for giving him a Inopportune hit to a linesman involuntarily. In the recent final in New York, in which he fell by triple 6-4 against Daniil Medvedev, the Serbian did not suffer the same fate, but received a financial sanction for unsportsmanlike conduct.
In the second set, Djokovic saw his frustration increased, to the point of hitting himself with the racket, to later smash it against the floor of the Arthur Ashe court. Even a ball boy who was passing by evidenced the violence of the scene. As stated in the disciplinary regulations for this type of actions, Nole was fined with $ 5,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct.
