Headline: Broadcaster Apologises to Djokovic After Offensive Comments at Australian Open

Caption: Channel Nine's Tony Jones shouted remarks like "Novak's a has-been" and "kick him out" while live on air, upsetting Djokovic and his Serbian fans. Djokovic refused his usual on-court interview after Sunday's win over Jiri Lehecka, citing the broadcaster's behavior as the reason. In a press conference, Djokovic called the remarks a "mockery" of Serbian fans and said they created a "very awkward situation" for him.
