Novak Djokovic won his 10th Australian Open title on Sunday, and apparently he achieved the feat while dealing with a hamstring tear.
It wasn’t a secret that the 22-time Grand Slam champion had an injury during the tournament. However, some people thought he was “faking” the injury since he was still dominating on the court, so much so that he won the tournament.
Djokovic disproved those speculations, and now the Australian Open CEO Craig Tiley informed reporters that Djokovic played with a three centimeter hamstring tear throughout the tournament.
