Novak Djokovic, world number two, experienced a moment of intense emotion during the first round of the US Open, breaking down in tears on court during the match.

The Serbian tennis player was ultimately defeated by Argentine Mariano Navone, in a match that was marked by this emotional moment from the 24-time Grand Slam champion.

The episode occurred during the first-round confrontation at the New York tournament, where Djokovic showed rare vulnerability on the professional circuit.

This defeat represents one of the most significant upsets at the US Open, given Djokovic's status as one of the tournament's usual big favorites.
