Novak Djokovic has always loved cracking jokes. It comes as no surprise, especially in 2011, considering he has lost only one match and won two Grand Slam titles.
Reporter Jean-René Dufort was recently a victim of a prank from the world No. 1 men's tennis player. As the two examining his racquet during an interview, Djokovic told Dufort to focus on the top of it and sneakily hit him in the groin with the handle. Djokovic immediately burst into laughter, barely being able to say that it was a "basic joke of tennis."
"Next time, always protect that part of your body when you ask me about these things," Djokovic said with a smile.
With the U.S. Open coming up, everyone in Serbia will certainly have their eyes on Djokovic as he will attempt to capture his third Grand Slam title of the year.
