The Serbian was signing autographs after his easy 6-3 6-1 victory against the lucky loser when he was hit in the head by the bottle and he immediately clutched his head as fell to his knees. He remained crouched on the ground for several seconds as staff ran to his aid and was eventually helped off court.
\nTournament organisers said there was no cause for concern over his condition.
\n\u201cNovak Djokovic on leaving the Central Court at the end of his match was hit on the head by a water bottle while signing autographs (for) spectators,\u201d the tournament said in\u00a0a statement\u00a0posted on social media.
\n\u201cHe underwent appropriate medication and has already left the Foro Italico to return to his hotel.\u201d
\nFootage posted to social media showed the bottle had slipped out of a fan\u2019s backpack and hit him. Reuters was not immediately able to independently verify the footage.
\n\u201cThank you for the messages of concern,\u201d Djokovic wrote on the social media platform X. \u201cThis was an accident and I am fine resting at the hotel with an ice pack. See you all on Sunday.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
