Novak Djokovic secured a significant win over Stefanos Tsitsipas in their recent match, but the victory came with a troubling revelation. The Serbian tennis star expressed his deep concern about a knee injury he sustained during the match.
“I am very worried, honestly, I don’t know what to say. I finished the match, and the intense pain went away. Whether I hit myself or slipped, I don’t even know,” Djokovic said, reflecting on the unexpected pain he experienced.
The injury evoked memories of a similar situation he faced during the fourth round of Roland Garros. “It all resembled the 4th round of Roland Garros where I managed to finish the match, and then I found out I was injured. I am pleased with the victory, but I am worried,” he added.
Djokovic’s apprehension highlights the delicate balance between pushing through pain to secure a win and the potential long-term consequences of such injuries. Fans and the tennis community now await further updates on his condition, hoping for a swift recovery for the champion.
