Jo-Wilfried Tsonga admits that he is wondering how he ended up on the losing end of his French Open quarter-final to Novak Djokovic.

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga has said that he is unsure how he came out on the losing end of his French Open quarter-final against Novak Djokovic this evening.

The Frenchman, buoyed by rapturous support from the Paris crowd, had four match points in the fourth set but was unable to convert because of some gutsy hitting from the Serbian.

Djokovic went on to claim the fourth in a breaker before coasting to victory in the fifth.

Speaking afterwards, Tsonga said: "I'll try to remember this match and this loss so I have more confidence in tournaments like Wimbledon. Because if I can hurt the top players on clay, I can do worse on grass."

Tsonga, 27, struggled to put his emotions into words, adding: "You get all kinds of feelings going through your mind. You want to break your racquet. You want to shout. You want to cry. You want to laugh and say, 'oh, come on, that's a joke. How could I lose this match?' You want to wake up."

Roger Federer, who is Djokovic's opponent in the last four, has said that he wanted to face Tsonga in the semis at Roland Garros.
