Something broke between the Australian crowd and Novak Djokovic in 2021, and the wounds have not finished healing. What happened at this Australian Open 2025 could be another turning point, with a significant part of the audience booing the Serbian when he decided to retire and leave the court. He did not hesitate to respond ironically by looking around and raising his thumbs.
This was unbelievably poor taste from the crowd tbh.

10 times champ who probably went on court just for the crowd to watch a bit of him. Hopefully not for the last time.
Don’t boo injured athletes. Doesn’t make sense, folks. pic.twitter.com/meLRRpedvY
