During the United Cup with the representation of Serbia, Novak Djokovic complained of pain in the wrist and forearm of his right hand for two matches, which immediately worried his fans around the world. There were fears that the best of all time had renewed the injury that plagued him in the fall of 2022, but…
“The wrist is fine, I rested it after De Minor. The trainings have gone great so far. You never know how the injury will behave during the tournament, but this is certainly a smaller problem than the ones I had with the abdomen in 2021, i.e. the thigh muscle last year,” said Novak Djokovic in Melbourne and thus pleased his fans before the first Grand Slam season.
We remind you that last year Novak Djokovic had problems with the back box, but that did not prevent him from winning the tournament and reaching the 10th cup at the Australian Open. The Serbian tennis player was not in an ideal situation in 2021 either, when he won the first Grand Slam of the season with a torn abdominal wall muscle.
It seems that he will not have such problems in Australia this season – in the training sessions he has done so far, it was not noticeable that he is struggling on the field, which is certainly good news. Of course, the situation can be a little different when the matches start because the intensity is at a higher level, so we will see how Novak will manage against the debutant Prižmić, who considers him an idol.
