Wimbledon 2024: Djokovic Match Into Semis
Novak Djokovic has advanced into the semi-finals of the ongoing Wimbledon 2024 after his opponent, Alex de Minaur, withdrew from the tournament prior to his quarter-final clash due to injury.
On health grounds, the ninth-seeded Australian, De Minaur, disclosed his withdrawal to compete against the seven-time champion Djokovic during the pre-match press conference, held on Wednesday, July 10.
He recounted his experience at the closing stages of his previous match against Arthur Fils, saying he was jarring his hip and did not recover in time for the quarter-final game against Djokovic.
De Minaur, who defeated Fils in four sets to reach the quarter-finals at a major for the third time, stressed that his withdrawal was hinged on preventing further injuries.
