Open championship

Having healed from a muscle rupture in his left hamstring he had experienced in Australia. Djokovic, who has gone undefeated in all 12 of his matches thus far this season, claims he has been pain-free for the past week.

It is “surreal,” according to Novak Djokovic, to break Steffi Graf’s record of 377 consecutive weeks at the top of the rankings, but he is proud to do it. The Serb will compete in Dubai for the first time since winning his 10th Australian Open championship and record-tying 22nd Grand Slam trophy last month. Where he will spend his 378th week at the top of men’s tennis. In Dubai on Sunday, Djokovic told reporters, “I still want more successes. I’m motivated by my goals. I genuinely am as committed to the sport as everyone else.

“Of course, it’s rather odd to match Steffi Graf, one of the all-time greats in our sport for both men and women, in terms of the number of weeks in the world. Being included with such renowned figures is flattering. I’m quite pleased with it.”

His 12 matches so far this season

Djokovic, who has gone undefeated in each of his 12 matches so far this season, claims to be pain-free after making a full recovery from the left hamstring muscle damage he suffered in Australia. “I’m getting closer to being 100%. In terms of the actual game and how I feel on the court, I’m still not there. But, the fact that there is no discomfort is what matters. There is nothing that prevents me from moving freely on the court “the 35-year-old said.

On Tuesday, Djokovic will face Czech qualifier Tomas Machac to open his Dubai campaign. Andy Murray, Daniil Medvedev, and Felix Auger-Aliassime are also anticipated to play.

In Doha, where he struggled through four three-setter matches before succumbing to Medvedev in the final, Murray. Who is one week older than Djokovic and has been the Serb’s nemesis since their early adolescent years, just completed a remarkable week.
