Novak Djokovic Suggests 'Nice Dancers' Should Come On Court Between Sets

Novak Djokovic said on Friday that tennis needs to be "more fun" and suggested dancers should be brought on court during breaks. The Serbian veteran said while the sport had a proud history and tradition, it had been slow in keeping pace with a new generation that does not have "a great attention span". He was commenting after admitting he got "hot-headed" with elements of the crowd during his Australian Open third-round win against 26th seed Tomas Machac. Some light mid-match entertainment might also help fans and players relax, he said.
