Djokovic returns to the Philippe Chatrier Court tonight

France sports minister Amelie Oudea-Castera has said Novak Djokovic's message about Kosovo "must not be repeated".

The Serb wrote "Kosovo is the heart of Serbia - stop the violence" on a camera lens, after his first round win at the French Open.

Amelie Oudea-Castera described it as "militant" and "very political".

The International Tennis Federation has not opened a disciplinary case.

Djokovic returns to the Philippe Chatrier Court tonight, to play Marton Fucsovics in the second round.

Carlos Alcaraz is also in action today - the top seed plays Taro Daniel.
