Djokovic exit ‘just one of those days’

-

World No 1 Novak Djokovic was trying hard to take his shock defeat at the ATP Indian Wells Masters in his stride, but it was not easy. Djokovic, who currently holds three of the four grand slam titles, was beaten 6-4, 6-4 to world No 39 German Philipp Kohlschrei­ber in the third round on Tuesday. “To be honest, I don’t enjoy losing,” the Serbian said. “Especially in a tournament like this, a tournament where I have had plenty of success in the past ... but it happens, just one of those days. You just have to deal with it, move on, turn the next page,” Djokovic said. “Miami is the next tournament singles-wise for me.”
