pBut he lost his cool with own of his loyal supporters for shouting during a rally after giving an advantage to Fritz./p
pThe Serbian motioned for one of them to be sent away from the pricey suite they were perched in after break point was retrieved by Fritz in the third set./p
pA furious Djokovic, 36, gestured angrily as he walked towards the towel bucket and waved his right arm in frustration./p
pTennis fans were quick to comment, with one saying: #8220;His own fans!!#8221;/p
pAnother said: #8220;Fans living rent-free in an athlete’s head is funny to me.#8221;/p

pThree-time tournament winner Djokovic eventually composed himself and rediscovered his form, which led to him triumphing 6-1, 6-4, 6-4./p
