“Hello? Hello? Hello? I need to go to the toilet,” the Serb can be heard telling chair official Aurelie Tourte before he ran off court without waiting for an answer, likely too desperate to wait. A security guard at the entrance of Rod Laver Arena also appears to stop him from running off, but Djokovic quickly returns just seconds after the umpire calls time at the end of the changeover.
Commentators on Australia’s host broadcaster Nine were quick to question whether the world No 5 had defied security by running off to the toilet. “He needs to go to the toilet? After five games? Well I think he’s actually pulled rank there as well. I think that official was trying to pull him back,” Mark Woodforde remarked.
