Losing the match, Djokovic, apparently frustrated, hit the ball with the tennis racket without even looking, hitting the female judge who was behind his back.

Top Seed Novak Djokovic has been disqualified from the US Open 4th round for inappropriate behaviour.
Footage from the scene shows Djokovic hitting a line judge aggressively with a tennis ball, after which she falls to the ground.

Djokovic was trailing 6:5 in the opening set against Spain's Pablo Carreno Busta.
