Collins Djokovic Open d'Australie

Novak Djokovic qualified for the last 16 of the Australian Open by beating Tomas Machac in three sets in his first real test of the tournament.

In the press conference, the Serb was asked about Danielle Collins' taunting of the Australian public, a sequence that was the subject of much discussion: "I loved her answer. I loved everything she said on and off the court after the match.

After that, I'm a big fan of Danielle Collins. I was before, but now an even bigger fan. I just adore her.

I've heard comments that she shouldn't have said this or that. I think she handled it very well.

I don't think I'd be that polite and I know exactly the feeling. I think she was funny and smart."
