Djokovic injured and withdrawn, an earthquake at Roland-Garros!

Djokovic injured and withdrawn, an earthquake at Roland-Garros!

Novak Djokovic wasn't faking it on Monday: he had indeed suffered a knee injury. After admitting he wasn't sure he'd be able to play in his quarter-final, it's now official: he's out of the French Open.

The world number 1 underwent an MRI on Tuesday, and the verdict was clear: a medial meniscus lesion in his right knee. As combative as he is, 'Nole' won't be able to compete on Tuesday, as his body has finally given up on him.

As a result, Casper Ruud has qualified for the semi-finals without playing, and Jannik Sinner will be world number 1 on Monday.

Andy has withdrawn, Most sensible decision he's made this afternoon, to be honest. Sad to see the match end this way. 😢

Andy is clearly struggling with an injury atm, so why carry on & aggravate it even more, especially with Wimbledon coming up 🤔
