Paris: World No.1 Novak Djokovic said that he had a "very awkward deja vu" when he accidentally hit a ball at the head of a line judge at during his 6-4, 6-3, 6-3 win in the fourth round of the French Open over Russia's Karen Khachanov.
"My gosh, it was very awkward deja vu. I'm actually trying to find the linesperson and see if he's okay because I saw he had a little bit of a bruise, like redness, in that place in the head where the ball hit him," said 33-year-old Djokovic in the post-match press conference.
"I hope he's fine. I mean, he definitely dealt with it in a very strong and brave way. But it was a hit because I was very close."
