Joao Fonseca stunned Novak Djokovic in a dramatic match this week, with the Brazilian teenager saying afterwards that he did not truly believe he could win until the final moments, even as he closed out one of the biggest victories of his young career.
Speaking after the contest, Fonseca said he had simply tried to enjoy sharing the court with Djokovic, whom he described as an idol, before emerging with a result that quickly turned the match into a talking point far beyond the tournament itself.
