Novak Djokovic played rather below-par tennis for his standards in Monte Carlo, where he lost to Lorenzo Musetti in the 3rd round.
The Serbian legend hit the court wearing an elbow bandage, and he was clearly struggling to hit his serve. Therefore, it was clear that his arm was injured. After the match, when asked to comment about his condition, he confirmed his participation in Banja Luka next week, adding, “I cannot say anything. I’m okay. I’m fine. Congratulations to him! We move on.”
