This decision means that the 24-time Grand Slam champion will arrive at the US Open without having played a match in approximately a month and a half.\n\nDjokovic has not competed since his defeat in the Wimbledon semi-finals against Jannik Sinner, who eventually became champion, on July 11th.\n\nThe straight-sets defeat against Sinner at the All England Club came two days after Djokovic, 38, suffered a fall he described as &#8220;unpleasant&#8221; and &#8220;uncomfortable&#8221; in the final game of his quarter-final victory. Djokovic was clearly affected against Sinner and was unable to move at his best, receiving treatment on his upper left leg from a trainer.\n\nDjokovic&#8217;s withdrawal from Cincinnati follows his decision not to participate in the Toronto Masters, which concludes this week. At that time, he cited a groin injury as the reason for his absence.\n\nHis previous event before Wimbledon was the French Open, where he also lost to Sinner in the semi-finals.\n\nDjokovic will have no preparation in hard court tournaments before the US Open men&#8217;s singles competition begins on August 24.\n\nHe has won four championships at Flushing Meadows, the most recent in 2023. That was also his most recent Grand Slam trophy.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Djokovic Withdraws from Cincinnati Open Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic withdrew from the Cincinnati Open this Monday, citing a &#8220;non-medical&#8221; reason.
