At the end of January in Melbourne, Novak Djokovic has won the 10th Australian Championship for the Australian Championship for the second time, thereby balancing the 22nd Grand Slam title with Rafael Nadal. Notably, Mr. Craig Tiley – Australian Director expanded revealed that Nole had to play with a 3 -cm long tear in the left leg of the left leg throughout the tournament.
But recently, Enzo Couacaud – the opponent in the 2nd round of the Australian expansion of Djokovic shared that Nole could win the tournament with a 3 -cm hamstring torn “unbelievable” and “far away”. Speaking in the Tennis Actu, Couacaud said:
“Novak claims he plays with an injury, and it is a serious injury. But when athletes suffer such injuries in antagonistic sports, they often cannot continue playing.
When Rafael Nadal was injured, he could not run. For example, Kylian Mbappe also had to take 2 weeks off. And these are the greatest athletes who have access to the leading health care. Therefore, it is hard to believe that only a man in the world can continue playing with injury. “
The French player continued to question: “Take an example of Nadal or Mbappe, especially Rafa, when injured in Wimbledon, he could not even serve. When you saw a great man who couldn't stand on the field and another person regained Grand Slam by playing every day for 2 weeks, it seemed a bit far away.
There are small things I find unreasonable. I was always told to not relax when injured. Novak relaxes at all times. Then you tell yourself, or they have a new method in Serbia, or that's strange. Such small things, even though he has his staff, I am not close enough to evaluate the authenticity of anything. It seems unbelievable. “
Djokovic also responded to his doubts about the injury during Australia expanded 2023. The reigning champion emphasized: “Let them continue to doubt. It is interesting that only my injury is suspected, but when the other players are injured and that affects them, they are victims and I am a pretending player.
I don't feel like I have anything to prove to anyone. I have a recording, a magnetic resonant camera (MRA) and an ultrasound result to prove that (waistal injury). Will I publish that in any documentary? I don't know, maybe but may not. “
