Dan Evans has claimed that unvaccinated star Novak Djokovic is a big miss from the US Open.
And the British No 2 also thinks that Rafael Nadal would rather have the Serbian star competing at Flushing Meadows so that he was able to win the tournament in "the best possible way." The Spaniard is chasing a third Grand Slam title of 2022, and 23rd overall, having already claimed the Australian Open and French Open.
However, Djokovic didn't play in Melbourne having been deported out of the country just a day before the tournament began, following an explosive legal battle over his Visa. At Wimbledon, it was Nadal forced to withdraw, but only after he'd reached the semi-final stage and picked up an abdominal injury.
