Novak Djokovic refuses to speak about ‘magic potion’ he inhaled during Wimbledon match | Tennis | Sport

During Djokovic’s match against Tim van Rijthoven on Sunday, the world No 3 caused confusion when he could be seen gesturing to his player box before sharply inhaling something from his drinks bottle. Some viewers on Twitter became suspicious, while it was brushed of as an unmixed energy supplement or isotonic powder. 

But the six-time champion at SW19 has now refused to reveal what was inside the bottle, shutting down a question in his post-match press conference after beating the British No 1. “Magic potion,” he said when asked about it, laughing. 

“That’s all I can say. It helps.” He then caused further confusion as he said he wasn’t currently able to speak about it, adding: “You’ll find out soon, but I can’t speak about it now. You’ll find out soon.”
