Djokovic dances with a fan on court after win
NEW YORK – Just when fans thought the day was over, Novak Djokovic gave them one more moment under the lights at Arthur Ashe Stadium. Minutes after defeating Andreas Haider-Maurer in straight sets, the world No. 1 broke into an impromptu dance with well-known fan.
Go on and celebrate, Djokovic.http://t.co/Q8NrwlX3rhpic.twitter.com/eduVRu2FHJ

"I'm glad that he came down to the court. It was not planned," Djokovic said in his press conference, adding that he's seen the fan at his matches for at least five years. "He's a true entertainer... Each year I see him in one of my matches, dancing, taking down the layers of the t-shirts. But, you know, it never gets old."

The moment ended when the dancing fan playfully forced a t-shirt over Djokovic's head, then ripped off his own to reveal a matching one underneath. The shirts said "I Love New York." Djokovic certainly does. And clearly, the feeling is mutual.
