Novak Djokovic's Miraculous Comeback
Novak Djokovic, the record holder for Grand Slam titles, has made an extraordinary recovery following knee surgery. Forced to withdraw from the quarter-finals at Roland Garros due to a meniscus injury in his right knee, Djokovic's participation in Wimbledon seemed highly improbable. However, the Serbian tennis star is now set to compete for his eighth title on the English turf, having played pain-free during an exhibition match against Daniil Medvedev.
Intense Rehabilitation and Successful Surgery
After undergoing surgery three weeks ago, Djokovic dedicated himself to a rigorous rehabilitation program. The seven-time Wimbledon winner, who wore a knee bandage during his match against Medvedev, expressed his relief and joy at playing without pain. 'I really enjoyed it a lot. Pain-free tennis is the best! I didn't have any pain and I'm very happy about it,' said Djokovic after his 6-3, 6-4 victory over the world number 5 at the Hurlingham Club.
Wimbledon Draw and Future Prospects
Djokovic will face the Czech player Vit Kopriva, ranked 123rd in the world, in the first round of Wimbledon where he is seeded number two. He humorously credited his surgeon as the 'MVP of the last three weeks' for making his participation possible. Alongside Djokovic, local hero Andy Murray also appears in the draw, set to face Tomas Machac, the world number 38, in the first round. Both players' recoveries and participation add an exciting dimension to this year's tournament.
