Who's cutting onions in here? Sportsmanship was on full display Sunday at the Rolex Paris Masters between Grigor Dimitrov and Novak Djokovic.

While Djokovic won a record-extended seventh career title at the event by a 6-4, 6-3 final score, the post-match scenes proved the biggest highlight.

With Dimitrov brought to tears after falling just short of his first ATP singles title in six years, the world No. 1 paused his on-court interview—as the crowd at Accor Arena chanted Dimitrov's name—and went over to the Bulgarian's bench to give him a warm embrace.

On the mic, Djokovic also had sweet words for Dimitrov, whose resurgent season continued in Paris. En route to his second career ATP Masters 1000 final, Dimitrov upset both Daniil Medvedev and Stefanos Tsitsipas in third-set tiebreaks.

“I’ve been in these situations before many times. Losing finals," Djokovic said. "I’ve been blessed to of course win more finals than I’ve lost. I really hope he will continue to play at a high level.

"He’s been playing some of his best tennis this week and I wish him all the best. I hope he can win big events.”
