The legendary Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic had health issues during the third round of the 'Masters' in China. This was reported by 'Glavkom' citing BTU.
The Serb won the match against German Yannick Hanfmann, but he was turbulent during the game. In the second set, Djokovic was bored right on the court, feeling heavy due to high humidity.
“Of course, these are the same conditions for all players on the court, but it’s very harsh. It’s hard when day by day the humidity exceeds 80 percent, especially for guys playing throughout the day in the heat, under the sun, it’s even harsher,” Djokovic complained.
