Novak Djokovic's left thigh injury is more serious than expected. The former world No. 1 – who was forced to retire during the 2025 Australian Open semifinal against Alexander Zverev – had posted the resonance of his injury the day after the semifinal on social media to silence all his detractors.

According to ESPN analyst Chris Fowler, Djokovic's injury involves a tear in the "deepest part of his hamstring." This could mean the Serbian star could be out for as long as two months.
