World Number 2, Novak Djokovic is living his dream right now. After a controversy-filled 2022, that saw him miss the Australian Open and the US Open, the 23-time Grand Slam champion is back to winning ways. Earlier today, he defeated Italy’s Jannik Sinner to enter the 2023 Wimbledon Championships final. It was a dominating performance by the Serb, who broke hardly any sweat in dispatching his opponent, who is 15 years younger than him. However, one particular moment during the match caused massive drama on social media.

Time and again, Djokovic has come up against a vocal Wimbledon crowd. They haven’t been kind enough to Djokovic, jeering at him during his feisty encounters. However, Djokovic hit back at them today, making a bizarre face.

What did Novak Djokovic do?

After winning a wonderful rally during the third set of his semifinal encounter against Jannik Sinner, Djokovic mocked his haters’ tears as he set out a crying action. The video quickly went viral all over the internet, reminding people of his actions four years back. At the 2019 Wimbledon Championships, the former World Number One made a similar gesture at the crowd during the Wimbledon final against Roger Federer. It was on the same day as today, four years back.

That match too went Djokovic’s way, as he prevented his arch-rival Federer from winning another Wimbledon title. It was one of the greatest finals the tournament has witnessed as the Serb won the final set 13-12 to clinch the Wimbledon crown.

Fans react to Djokovic mocking Wimbledon crowd

As Djokovic’s video went viral on social media, fans gave in their views on his actions. One of the fans said, “he is revolting and classless.”

Meanwhile, another fan backed him, saying, “His stance, though polarizing, with respect to risk stratification, self agency & autonomy certainly elevated him. Bigger than the game, bigger than the endorsements.”

Further, another Twitter user mentioned, “It?s hard to argue that he is not the best ever tennis player but never will he be loved as much as Nadal or Federer (sorry but simply true) and it really niggles him.”

Djokovic will look to quickly recover from his drama-filled semifinal encounter as he readies himself for the big final. In the summit clash, he’ll face the winner of the other semifinal between Daniil Medvedev and Carlos Alcaraz.
