Novak Djokovic says he will undergo extra medical tests after being struck by a water bottle during a defeat in the third round of the Italian Open. The Serbian had been signing autographs on Friday after his second-round win over Corentin Moutet when a metal bottle fell out of a fan’s backpack and directly on his head. After the initial blood and nausea, Djokovic said he had felt fine on Saturday as he returned to training, even entering the practice court jokingly wearing a helmet. On Sunday, though, he said he felt like a ‘different player’ as he was defeated 6-2, 6-3 by Chile’s Alejandro Tabilo, the 29th seed.
