Mariano Navone wins 7-6 (7-5), 5-7, 4-6, 6-2, 6-1 to end Serb’s hopes
Djokovic vomits numerous times and has to fight off cramps
The first night session of the US Open this year was approaching the three hour mark when Novak Djokovic walked briskly to the corner of the vast Arthur Ashe Stadium court, bent down and vomited the contents of his stomach straight into the towel bin.
This was neither the first nor the last time that Djokovic threw up during an excruciating four hours and 36 minutes of suffering, and his miserable night ended around midnight with the 24-time grand slam champion in tears as he was defeated 7-6 (5), 5-7, 4-6, 6-2, 6-1 by Mariano Navone in the first round.
