It was interesting to see what reception Djokovic receives after another row here – this time involving Aussie television presenter Tony Jones.
Well, it turned out to be as warm and welcoming as ever.
The 10-time champion is adored at Rod Laver Arena – which he has often described as his “second home” – but the mood of the Australians can be volatile.
Public opinion swelled against him in 2022 when he was deported after the Covid row, although he received a great reception when he returned in 2023.
-Most Aussies I’ve spoke to about this week’s incident have been behind Djokovic, believing Jones was out of order.
Those here at RLA seem to agree.
