JAKARTA - The Paris-Bercy Masters 1000 semifinal between Novak Djokovic and Stefanos Tsitsipas left a controversial image that went viral. What's that?

On the third set, when Djokovic's strength began to weaken, he asked for a drink from his bench located at one end of the field.

Ulysses Badio, his physiotherapist, began preparing in the stands without realizing that a fan was recording it.

Physical coach Marco Panichi, who realized they were being filmed, warned his colleagues to hide the situation in question.

A ballboy took the drink and gave it to the player. The social network is full of criticism for the lack of transparency from Djokovic's team.

In that match, Djokovic needed a third tie-breaking set to beat Tsitsipas 6-2, 3-6, 7-6 (7/4) in order to secure a place in the Paris Masters final.

In Sunday's final, Serbian players were surprisingly defeated by Danish tennis player Holger Rune 3-6, 6-3, 7-5.
