Novak Djokovic gives important injury update on his left knee ahead of title clash with Jannik Sinner at Shanghai Masters 2024
Novak Djokovic, ahead of his face-off with Jannik Sinner in the Shanghai Masters final, has shared an important injury update. The Serbian who seemed to have been facing some problems with his left knee, has revealed that there is nothing to worry about and it’s “good news”.
During his quarterfinal clash against Jakub Mensik, Djokovic was seen trying to stretch out his muscle on the left knee. The 37-year-old has already been troubled by his right knee. He suffered a meniscus tear during Roland Garros and had to undergo surgery.
The 24-time Grand Slam champion did recover quickly and went on to play the Wimbledon final and win the gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics but the knee brace has stayed. And now, Djokovic struggling with his left knee sent signs of worry. However, the Serbian has confirmed that there is nothing to worry about.
A day before, the Serbian had hinted that it might be just cramping. Djokovic came back from behind against Mensik to win the match (4)6-7, 6-1, 6-4. On Saturday, he looked even better, winning 6-4, 7-6(6) against Taylor Fritz.
