Novak Djokovic was cruising to victory against British wildcard Jacob Fearnley before the youngster took the third set - and the Serb was accused of 'tanking'
Nick Kyrgios and Tim Henman playfully insinuated that Novak Djokovic might have intentionally allowed Jacob Fearnley a chance to recover in their match, potentially to ensure Andy Murray secured a prime television slot.
Djokovic was the opening act on the main show court, while the Murray brothers were scheduled for the third doubles match of the day. Simultaneously, on Court 1, both British No. 1s were competing. To which Kyrgios replied: "Maybe Novak knows that deep down. Maybe he does." Henman chimed in: "He's almost trying to help the tournament, he's a member of the club."
