It turned out, though, that he may have been saying Ruuuuune, for his youthful opponent, Holger Rune (who adorably carried his equipment in an Ikea bag). Yes, Djokovic has basically become Mr. Burns at the film festival, wondering if they were saying Booo! or Booourns!
And while Djokovic won, this wasn't a clean outing. His shoulder didn't appear to bother him in play, but the 18-year-old Rune, a Danish teen who idolized Federer, managed to take the second set while the crowd willed him on.
For those wondering why the crowd were against Djokovic, you may be forgetting his previous experience at Arthur Ashe Stadium. In 2020, Djokovic got defaulted out of the first round after unintentionally hitting a ball at a line judge's throat, after striking it in frustration after losing a serve against Pablo Carreño Busta (who beat him for the bronze in the 2021 Tokyo Olympics.
Tallon Griekspoor, the world's no. 125th ranked player, earned his first main-draw victory at a major in the first round He upset the 52nd-ranked Jan-Lennard Struff of Germany. We're betting Djokovic's going to win, though.
