Djokovic loses cool as Olympic medal chances slip by

Novak Djokovic threw one racquet and smashed another as his bid for an Olympic medal ended in defeat by Spain’s Pablo Carreno Busta.

The Serb, whose gold bid was ended by Alexander Zverev on Friday, lost 6-4 6-7 (6-8) 6-3 in the bronze-medal match.

Djokovic then pulled out of his mixed doubles bronze-medal match with an injury to leave Tokyo empty-handed.
