Tennis star Carlos Alcaraz has expressed his frustration with the withdrawal of Novak Djokovic from the 2024 French Open as a result of injury.
Djokovic was set to play today, but he had to withdraw unfortunately with a meniscus tear. It is unknown how long he will be out for.
Reacting to the Serb’s premature exit, Alcaraz said: “Well, I was surprised that he withdraw from the tournament after watch the match yesterday. He finished the match playing great tennis and he didn’t show pain at the end of the match,” he said.

“So, it was a surprise for me that he withdraw from the tournament. But he talked with his team, with the doctor and you know, tennis is like that, so sometimes you have to deal with it,” he added.
“But I think not having Djokovic in the tournament, it’s, I’m going to say frustrating for the fans not having one of the best players in the world in the tournament.”
Alcaraz has dropped just one set so far at the tournament, with Tuesday’s victory setting up a mouth-watering semi-final clash against Jannik Sinner.
