Frustrated Novak Djokovic pulls off smash and grab at French Open

Novak Djokovic dropped his first set, and smashed his first racket, at this year’s French Open — but still battled through to the fourth round.

The former world number one cut a frustrated figure for long periods of his clash with Spain’s Roberto Bautista Agut, the 13th seed.

When he missed a simple forehand during the second-set tie-break, Djokovic pounded his racket against the ground before stomping off to unwrap a new one.
