AUSTRALIA – Novak Djokovic has beaten Taylor Fritz 7-6 (7-1) 6-4 3-6 4-6 6-2 in a Tennis match in Australia open 2021 despite his injury.
In a statement, Djokovic”It doesn’t matter who I was up against or at what round, to pull this through is something I will remember forever.
“In the third and fourth set, I just served and couldn’t do much with the returns. I was just putting in two first serves.
“I just tried to stay in there. I was hoping that whatever was happening was going to feel better and towards the end of the fourth it started to feel better.”
“With the bad news today, we knew that midnight was going to be the deadline for when we go into lockdown,” Djokovic said. “It was unfortunate for the crowd that we didn’t finish the match with them seeing the end of the match as they were enjoying it.”
The Australian Open is still able to be played and organizers are hopeful fans will be able to return from Thursday, 18 February for the final four days of play.
