TV presenter Tony Jones has issued an apology to Novak Djokovic after mocking him and Serbian fans at the Australian Open.

It resulted in Djokovic boycotting an on-court interview following last night's win over Jiri Lehecka [yizzy la-hetch-ka].

Speaking on Channel Nine, Jones says he's reached out to Djokovic and his camp to apologise for making comments he considered to be banter.

Former New Zealand Professional David Mustard joined D'Arcy Waldegrave to discuss Novak's controversy.
