the last thing Novak Djokovik Perhaps it was expected that he would get hurt while signing autographs after the victory at the Italian Open… but that’s exactly what happened – a water bottle flying from the stand hit him in the head, causing him to groan in pain.
Djokovic reaches out to his supporters after his 6-3, 6-1 win over France corentin moutet on Friday…and decided to show some love by writing my Hancock on some memorabilia.
The video on Twitter shows Djokovic falling to the ground and holding his head after being hit in the head with a water bottle.
Someone from the crowd hit Novak Djokovic on the head with a bottle and he fell down and was bleeding.
The lack of security at the Rome tournament is shocking.
Someone please protect this man.pic.twitter.com/fGnVrYpb4h

Many who watched the clip scolded security and wondered how someone managed to slash an object at the Joker… but another angle revealed it was unintentional.
“It is not being treated as an intentional act, but an accident,” tournament organizers said in a statement.
“A guy was clamoring for autographs and a bottle fell out of his bag.”
“Novak has undergone the necessary tests and has already left to return to his hotel. His condition is not a cause for concern.”
