Novak Djokovic had a rather bad day on Thursday in Monte Carlo where he lost to Lorenzo Musetti 4-6 7-5 6-4 in the 3rd round at the Masters). Novak looked out of sorts for most of the match and was wearing a bandage on his elbow. When the Serbian legend doesn’t feel at his 100% he often struggles with his balance. During the match, Novak had a rather weird fall that fortunately didn’t cause any injuries.
Here is the video.
