Djokovic Withdraws from Serbia’s Davis Cup Squad Due to Injury

World number six Novak Djokovic has withdrawn from Serbia’s Davis Cup first-round qualifier against Denmark due to a hamstring injury, the Serbian Tennis Federation (TSS) confirmed.

Djokovic, 37, was scheduled to lead his national team in Copenhagen from January 31 to February 2 but sustained the injury during his Australian Open semi-final against Alexander Zverev last week.

The 24-time Grand Slam champion, who was booed by the crowd at Melbourne Park, later shared an MRI scan of his left hamstring on social media in response to skepticism over his condition.

Despite Djokovic’s absence, Serbia remains optimistic. “We are weakened without Novak, but we still aim to win. Denmark has a strong player in Holger Rune, but I believe in my team,” said Serbia’s Davis Cup captain Viktor Troicki.

Djokovic was instrumental in Serbia’s 2010 Davis Cup triumph and remains a key figure in the team’s aspirations for another title.
