Not all is going well in the camp of Novak Djokovic. After nearly winning the Calendar Year Grand Slam last season, where he won three major titles, the Serb was expected to continue his domination in 2024 too.

Djokovic has played just two tournaments this year, the Australian Open and the Indian Wells Masters, reaching the semifinals and the third round, respectively. Recently, a tennis bigwig dropped a saddening update for Djokovic’s fans.

Djokovic has skipped the ongoing Miami Open in order to balance his hectic schedule in 2024. Here’s what was revealed that wouldn’t go down well with his fans.
