Novak Djokovic was shocked by Lorenzo Musetti in Montecarlo after losing 4-6 7-5 6-4 in the 3rd round. The Serbian sensation was quite far from his usual standards, and he had a rather worrying bandage on his elbow. It seemed as if Novak was out of sorts and struggling with his serve. Djokovic was rather nervous during the match and he was caught destroying a racket with a kick during a changeover.
This is the video.
