Norrie's attitude of late hasn't been at a usual standard of tennis player, he's more angry, more fiery and he's playing the gamesmanship more often.
I don't think Norrie is either a fan of Djokovic either.

Norrie would have gained 720 points for making the semi-finals, and the lack of ranking recognition has helped scupper his chances of making the field in Turin.
Not only that, but the absence of points could also sink Great Britain's hopes of making the 18-nation United Cup, the £13million mixed team event planned for Australia in January.
Djokovic could qualify for the ATP Finals anyway if he won this week's Paris Masters, but otherwise he is relying on a regulation which - with an apparent inconsistency - is still recognising what he did at The Championships.
'Novak obviously qualified from Wimbledon so that seems a bit strange,' said Norrie, who made the second round in Paris on Monday with a 6-2, 6-4 win over Serbia's Miomir Kecmanovic.
'I don't know if that was the rule before or not, but its seems unfair, I guess for Nick Kyrgios as well.
'He lost in the final and he gets nothing. I knew that I hadn't had the points all along, but I was still in with pretty decent chance I thought.'
