He was on the ground for few seconds as the staff rushed to help off the court. A video of the incident has gone viral on social media and it shows that the fan didn't do it on purpose as the bottle slipped out of his bag by mistake and landed on Djokovic's head.

Djokovic was also left with a tiny bump, with some blood, on his head. In a statement, the tournament organisers said, "Novak Djokovic on leaving the Central Court at the end of his match was hit on the head by a water bottle while signing autographs (for) spectators. He underwent appropriate medication and has already left the Foro Italico to return to his hotel."
