There was a bit awkward and humorous moment when Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal were asked to dance. While the Serbian enjoyed the offbeat moves and was in his zone but Rafael Nadal didn’t look to be too comfortable as he denied to dance and stepped backward while doing some half steps and laughing.
A young kid also vaulted the wall to meet Rafael Nadal when he was watching the 16-time Grand Slam champion dancing with the audience. The kid was then rescued by the security.
