“Cannot Give You Any Date”: Novak Djokovic Still Uncertain About Australian Open 2022

Novak Djokovic’s Team Serbia sustained a major setback at Davis Cup 2021. Croatia edged past Serbia to secure their place in the finals of the competition. In the decider match, Serbia registered a poor defeat against Marin Cilic’s team.

Chiefly, after an unfortunate exit, Novak Djokovic wants to spend some time with his family.

Moreover, the World No. 1 also gave a small update on his participation at the upcoming Australian Open 2022. Major players like Rafael Nadal and Serena Williams will be making their comeback at the ‘Happy Slam’ in 2022.

Novak Djokovic wants to relax for a while

Novak Djokovic has had a staggering 2021 season, winning three out of four Grand Slam titles. The Serb also retained the top spot of World No. 1 for a record-breaking 7th time in his career.

However, Djokovic’s Serbia had to make a disappointing exit at the Davis Cup 2021. Croatia has made its way to the finals after crushing Serbia quite gracefully. Soon after the defeat, Novak Djokovic talked about taking a short break from tennis.

In an interview after the match, Djokovic quoted, ” I understand you want some answers on where I start the season, how I start it. I’m really, really tired from this season and this whole year, so I just prefer sticking to the family quality time, rehab mode, then let’s see what the future brings.”

In spite of registering one of his best seasons, it was also truly tiring for the 34-years-old. Djokovic played a lot of tennis this year so surely rest is what he needs now.
