<p>Djokovic then launched an angry outburst at a section of Centre Court fans who constantly chanted &ldquo;Rune&rdquo; throughout the match and which the Serb took to be booing. &ldquo;To all the fans that have had respect and stayed here tonight, I thank you from the bottom of my heart and I appreciate it,&rdquo; said an angry Djokovic.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&ldquo;And to all those people that have chosen to disrespect the player&mdash;in this case me&mdash;have a goooooooood night,&rdquo; he added, mocking his tormentors&rsquo; exaggerated &ldquo;Ruuuuune.&rdquo;</p>
<p>When told by the TV interviewer that some fans were shouting &ldquo;Rune&rdquo; rather than &ldquo;boo&rdquo; Djokovic hit back.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&ldquo;They were [booing]. They were. I am not accepting it. No, no, no. I know they were cheering for Rune but that&rsquo;s an excuse to also boo,&rdquo; he said.</p>
