Novak Djokovic has eased into the second round of the French Open but risked inflaming political tensions in his home region with a message about Kosovo.
“Kosovo is the heart of Serbia. Stop violence,” Djokovic wrote on the lens of a camera as he left court after his 6-3 6-2 7-6 (7-1) victory over American Aleksandar Kovacevic, who is of Serbian heritage.
