Novak Djokovic survives an injury scare and a stern test from Enzo Couacaud to reach the third round of the Australian Open, where he will play Grigor ...

I had many opportunities in the second to win it and I didn't. Djokovic now holds a 7-0 record on the season, having captured his 92nd tour-level title in Adelaide earlier this month. But once Djokovic's movement improved in the third set, the Frenchman was unable to respond. The 35-year-old will keep his focus directly in front of him, though, with former World No. He played some great tennis, especially in the second set. However, the nine-time champion persevered to reach the third round at Melbourne Park.

There was a bit of Djokovic’s usual interplay with the crowd when he got his game in order. And whatever Couacaud’s chances were beforehand seemed to dim just four games in, when he turned his right ankle and required a visit from a trainer. “You just have to deal with it. He took a medical timeout while a trainer re-taped him during the second set — which Djokovic would go on to drop. “What I have a problem with is when somebody’s crossing the line, numerous times ... Seeking a 10th trophy at Melbourne Park, to add to his own record, and a 22nd Grand Slam title overall, to equal Nadal’s, Djokovic put everything aside and beat 191st-ranked French qualifier Enzo Couacaud 6-1, 6-7 (5), 6-2, 6-0.

“They can see that the media are publicly lynching me” : Djokovic ... (Tennis Majors)

Across their social media, Eurosport posted video footage of Novak taking the toilet break with a headline “Novak Djokovic defied the umpire to take an early ...

They will still think that I defied the umpire, went to the toilet and that I didn’t follow the rules. That is how they portray me, for me that is now a normal occurrence – but I will not tolerate injustice. Eurosport is broadcasting the Australian Open, they are one of the biggest sports channels in the world. Are they going to publicly apologise to me? I am an easy target to be the villain. At the end of the day, if we are members of this Tour, surely there has to be some responsibility towards the players, some sort of protection. “I am an easy target to be the villain. I know it, and you know it – because I just told you, but the majority of people who follow tennis will never hear about it. “Again, I have been placed in a situation where I have to react publicly. Subsequently they apologised to me, and everything was OK; but here we are again where Eurosport is sensationalising something which is completely taken out of context,” said Djokovic to which he added: I love Eurosport, I love sport in general – I have been watching skiing on Eurosport my whole life, but these situations…” For the second time in six months, I have a problem with Eurosport.
