Jelena Djokovic issues clarification over 'dodgy' video of husband's drink

After a fan inquired about mysterious drink vak Djokovic was drinking during his clash against Stefas Tsitsipas at Paris Masters, Jelena issued a detailed justification for same. Jelena took to Twitter and wrote, "I don’t see anything dodgy. In fact, I see people trying to be private about ir business in a world where everyone feels like y have every right to point camera at you whenever y want. Apparently, wanting/trying to be private makes you dodgy ways."

And that is t it, as Jelena also replied to ar fan's post, who questioned why vak Djokovic refused to provide clarity about what drink he was consuming at Paris Masters. In reply, Jelena wrote, "He will talk when he is rey to talk. This whole nsense about making people speak about something y are t rey for because ORS are impatient is absurd. Sit a bit in silence. Mind yourself more. t everything you see is controversial. It could be private. Is that allowed?"

This is t first time that fans have raised concerns about contents in vak Djokovic's bottles. Earlier this year during Wimbledon quarter-final match against Jannik Sinner, Serbian international was captured inhaling a mysterious liquid which he termed as a 'magic potion' in his post-match confession.

" liquids were magic potions that my physio prepares in lab. That’s all I can say," said Djokovic on that occasion. Considering that 35-year-old did t provide a clear explanation for same, recent incident is likely to raise furr doubts.
