Along the way, countless young athletes have been inspired by Novak Djokovic’s story, which has grown with every triumph, every hard-fought match, and every record broken. But big success sometimes means having to make difficult decisions, and it looks like Djokovic is about to make a dismal declaration.
There are rumours circulating that Djokovic will not be participating in one of the main American hardcourt swing events. The tennis corridors are distributing this information. He might decide in a few days because the tournament has conflicting schedules with the national holiday.
A user announced on X that Djokovic will probably not be attending the Cincinnati Open. The user wrote: “If the rumour is true, due to scheduling conflicts, we might not see @DjokerNole playing @CincyTennis but rather defending his US Open.”
Djokovic wants to concentrate more on defending his championship at the US Open, which starts on August 26. Following his loss in SW19, Nole expressed his excitement for the next competitions. He talked earlier: “Well, the Olympic Games and US Open are the two big goals for the rest of the year for me. I’m hoping I can be at my best for those two tournaments. That’s all I can say right now.”
IF the rumor is true, due to “scheduling conflict,” we might NOT see @DjokerNole playing @CincyTennis but rather defending his 🏆 #USOpen #CincyTennis starts August 11th in 🇺🇸 and it looks like a national celebration might take place in Belgrade 🇷🇸 on August 13th for No1e🥇
