Novak Djokovic unsure about Wimbledon after French Open exit
Novak Djokovic has raised doubts about his Wimbledon participation after crashing out of the French Open.
The former world No 1 suffered a shock 6-3, 7-6 (7-4), 1-6, 7-6 (13-11) defeat to world No 72 Marco Cecchinato in the quarter-final at Roland Garros on Tuesday.
The Serb had been showing signs of returning to form in recent weeks after struggling during the early parts of the season following a small procedure on his elbow.
However, he did receive treatment to his neck during the match and he was not in a happy mood after the match.
When asked about when he will kick off his grass-court season, he replied: “I don’t know. I don’t know if I’m going to play on grass. I don’t know. I don’t know what I’m going to do. I just came from the court. Sorry, guys, I can’t give you that answer. I cannot give you any answer.
“How do I regroup? I don’t know. I’m just not thinking about tennis at the moment.”
