Djokovic reflects on the whistles: I know what I've given to this tournament over the past 20 years

Djokovic Open d'Australie Zverev

Novak Djokovic was forced to retire from his Australian Open semi-final.

Opposed to Alexander Zverev, the Serb, weakened by a leg injury, threw in the towel after losing the first set in a tiebreak after 1h20 of play.
The former world number 1 left the court to the whistles of the Rod Laver Arena spectators.

In a press conference, Djokovic spoke of the moment: "People paid for their tickets and came to see a big match, which they didn't get. Seen from that angle, I can understand their reaction.

In any case, I do my best to understand them, but I'm not sure they understand me, or even that they're trying to.

Yet I know what I've given to this tournament over the last 20 years. I'll stop here, so I don't have to talk out of turn," Djokovic assured Tennis Majors.

It is disappointing for fans but an athlete (especially of his calibre, achievements & age) knows his body very well and risking a bigger injury ( & recovery time he can't afford) means he made the best decision for himself & his fans. Feel bad for Alcaraz though - its a double blow for him in retrospect.

He took the first set to a tie break. If he'd won the first set and had the hope of winning in straight sets maybe he would have taken a medical time out and work on the injury. Oh well. Maybe it's better this way than seeing him start hobbling around in the final and have to give up then.

Tbf, Gour, if Alcaraz couldn't beat an injured Djokovic then he doesn't deserve to be in the semi-final.

It would be best to say less about the behavior of the Aussie fans. First they did it when Indian cricketers toured and now this.

This week I have used all my formulas and best guesses to try to achieve the high score jimandlori958 set in our last competition. I am two games short because of cancelations and I need all wins to get there.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Grenier and Hsu at the Kobe tournament? The match was played to completion and on time.

Grenier def Ysu 6-2 , 6-2 at Kobe today and the TT canceled the match.

2nd for me this week.

An impressive win.. Congrats to our winner this week, jimandlori958 and with a score that could not be caught or matched. I don't remember a 56 in a while with our group. Nice to see everyone using the 2 point predictions. Can't win without 'em.
