Tennis fans noticed that Novak Djokovic had a prolonged goodbye before leaving the court after his French Open semifinals loss to Jannik Sinner.
Djokovic dropped his bags, leaned down and blew a kiss to the clay. He also acknowledged the crowd on its feet applauding and shouting for him. Many wondered if the 38-year-old reigning Olympic champion crowned on that same court last year, would play there ever again.
