Djokovic match halted twice amid wind at Roland Garros

Paris, May 27 (UNI) Novak Djokovic's first-round encounter against Mackenzie McDonald at the French Open descended into farce on Tuesday, with the match halted twice during the opening set amid player protests and mounting spectators' frustration over windy conditions on Court Philippe-Chatrier.

A tournament official later joined the deliberations as Djokovic insisted conditions were "unplayable".
