Novak Djokovic hasn’t been short of controversy during the Australian Open amid his injury which some have said is fake, as well as bottle gate in which he has been fed information.
But his father has been bringing the spotlight this time.
In the footage, Srdjan Djokovic was greeted by a group of pro Putin supporters - four of whom were earlier expelled from the tournament by police after reportedly threatening security previously.
Before leaving, he reportedly also said “zivejli Russiyani” which means long life or long live the Russians.
