Shame on all these people saying that Djokovic had faked his injury in his match v Alcaraz. Adrenaline bravely got him through that match and he bravely somehow even got onto court today.
Very proud of Novak, rest and recover now; he's done amazingly well.
Zverev.
"Please guys, dont' boo a player when he goes out injured.
I know that everybody paid for tickets, but Novak Djokovic gave to this sport everything he had in the last 20 years. Won this tournament with an abdominal and hamstring tear. Show some love".
From Djokovic's presser:
- Confirms it's a muscle tear, much more painful than 2 years ago
- Says he would have tried to play probably one more set if he had won the 1st
- Doesn't confirm he will comeback to the #AusOpen, hinting retirement in 2025. "It depends on this season"
This is ridiculous lmfao second hand steroids through a massage??
ATP always looks out for their money makers
Good for business, bad for transparency and integrity
This is what the biggest problem is BTW
Suspended on 2 different occasions and it was lifted BEFORE the tribunal was put in place
This is a crazy double standard as every other occasion I’m aware of in tennis requires the athlete to sit out UNTIL the tribunal makes a ruling
Who is Mr. Mark Hovell and how does he now all of a sudden have the power to unilaterally clear players?
Aight the Sinner explanation does seem pretty plausible, which is great, but yeah how this was handled really doesn’t seem fair compared to other players whatsoever
Jelena Janković reacts:
“The fact that Jannik wasn’t suspended like other athletes (especially a woman) says everything about the world we live in. I have to think about Maria and Simona now and what they’ve been through. Simona waited for 2-3 years for her case to be resolved.
@ForeverBuff1997@DjokovicFan_@Riccardo__07 Bruh, they probably tested when it was just leaving his system? The amount doesn’t matter. Wtf his team doing with something like that anyway? Save it, he failed 2 steroid tests. Should be gone.
Whatever Sinner did or was told to do was not legitimate.
They've concocted a story which nobody aside from Sinner Fans are believing, and they've been caught trying to protect their number 1 player and their number 1 investment.
I'm glad many in the industry are speaking up.
Sinner's case reminded me of Bortolotti when he tested positive in Lisbon but was allowed to keep playing (only had prize money + points disqualified from said event). Turns out it was also clostebol, which is way more commonly solid in medication in Italy

Djokovic 25….💔💔💔
Sinner has tested positive for doping in march (apparently it was an accident)
Sinner defeated Djokovic in the AO semis. Djokovic never lost a AO semifinal before…Something’s not right 😕
