Tennis champ Novak Djokovic throws racquet, narrowly misses linesman

Tennis ace Novak Djokovic has narrowly avoided disqualification at the French Open.

The world No.1 enjoyed a straight sets win over Tomas Berdych at the French Open, however, his safe passage was almost derailed when he threw his racquet in the third set.

It just missed a linesman.

‘I’m aware I’ve been lucky and I apologise,’ the reigning Australian Open champ said after the match.
