“The elbow is not in an ideal condition, but let’s say it’s good enough,” Djokovic mentioned in a press convention. “I hope it will be fully ready for the first match.”


It’s the primary we’ve heard of the harm since Monte-Carlo, the place Djokovic wore a compression sleeve on his proper arm throughout his spherical of 16 loss to Lorenzo Musetti. After the match Djokovic was transient in press, not wanting to debate the harm or take away any credit score from the Italian after his largest profession victory.

“I cannot say nothing. I’m okay. I’m fine. Congrats to him. We move on,” he mentioned.

Djokovic is slated to face 19-year-old Frenchman Luca Van Assche within the second spherical.
