Novak Djokovic shared an MRI scan of his left hamstring injury on social media following his retirement from the Australian Open semifinal. The 24-time Grand Slam champion faced boos from the crowd after dropping the first set against Alexander Zverev. Zverev defended Djokovic, recognizing his dedication to the sport over the past 20 years. Djokovic had been experiencing pain from a muscle tear sustained in his previous match against Carlos Alcaraz. He did not provide further details about his injury or recovery timeline.
Thought I'd leave this here for all the sports injury 'experts' out there.
But you've got to understand - Novak Djokovic is somebody that has given this sport, for the past 20 years, absolutely everything of his life.
I did everything I possibly can to basically manage the muscle tear that I had.
Towards the end of that first set, I just started feeling more and more pain.
