Novak Djokovic has apologised for yelling towards a ball girl during his fourth-round match with Kevin Anderson at Wimbledon.
The number one seed was forced to battle back Kevin Anderson from two sets down to reach the last eight, restoring parity .
During the sixth game of the deciding set, Djokovic sent a forehand into the net and appeared to yell at a ball girl when demanding his towel.
However, the Serb has apologised for his actions, which came during a "frustrating" period of the match for him.
"I'm sorry. There was nothing towards her. Maybe she was just afraid of my screaming there. I was pretty close to her. I'm definitely going to try to apologise to her if I did something wrong," Djokovic said.
"Obviously the fifth set today was very frustrating, very tense. I didn't have basically any chances on his serve till the 11th game when he made two double faults and I made a couple of good returns from the forehand side. That was enough.
"Sometimes it's just good to scream and let it all out, because that's the way I work."
