Andy Murray makes his feelings clear on Novak Djokovic’s Davis Cup crowd comments

The long-lasting rivalry between Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic has taken a fresh turn after the Serbian took aim at British fans during the Davis Cup quarter-final. Serbia beat Great Britain 2-0 to advance to the semi-final, before losing 2-1 to Italy who made the final for the first time in 25 years.

Murray broke his silence on Djokovic’s actions after the Serbian told British fans to “shut up” during his post-match speech.

Djokovic felt as though the British fans were purposefully trying to annoy him while facing Cameron Norrie, and they continued to sing and make noise during his post-match winning speech. “Learn how to show respect to players,” Djokovic said, before later shouting “shut up”.

The 24-time Grand Slam champion then added: “Disrespect, but again, that’s something I’m kind of have to be prepared for. You know, in the Davis Cup, it’s normal that sometimes fans step over the line, but, you know, in the heat of the moment, you react too, and you, in a way, how can I say, show that you don’t allow this kind of behaviour.”
