Novak Djokovic Withdraws From Miami Open After Indian Wells Shock
Following his shock at Indian Wells, Novak Djokovic withdraws from the Miami Open. After deciding to forego the competition, Novak Djokovic will not be participating in the Miami Open in 2024.
The Serbian and his opponent Rafael Nadal traveled together when they arrived in the United States, and given how poorly the first two ATP Masters 1000 events of the season went, it’s possible that they may depart the nation in the same aircraft.
While Djokovic was taken aback at Indian Wells in his second encounter and made the even more unexpected choice to retire from the Miami Open, Rafael Nadal was forced to withdraw from the Indian Wells Open and had no intention of competing in Miami. Djokovic fell to Jannik Sinner at the Australian Open, and with his withdrawal from the Miami Open, he will undoubtedly end the first three months of the 2024 season without a trophy. This occurs at a time when Djokovic needs victories to boost his confidence.
Why, in light of the shocking Indian Wells result, Novak Djokovic shouldn’t panic just yet Why, in light of the shocking Indian Wells result, Novak Djokovic shouldn’t panic just yet Thursday, March 14, 2024 The 24-time major champion had already suggested he might skip the Miami event following his defeat at the Indian Wells Open, and although that didn’t seem likely at the time, he decided to withdraw right away. Serbian journalist Sasa Ozmo, who frequently writes from Djokovic’s camp, has confirmed the news after personally verifying it.
Other rumors claim that the 36-year-old was already sighted in Belgrade, Serbia. While this is improbable, it’s tough to confirm at this time. Following his withdrawal from the Miami Open, Djokovic’s attention will be directed precisely where his adversary Nadal is already searching. With a potential match at Roland Garros just around the corner, both will get ready for the clay-court season. Djokovic is currently ranked ninth in the 2024 ATP Race rankings, which means that eight other players have already accumulated more points than the Serbian.
