Australian Open favourite Novak Djokovic continues to pose questions as to whether he'll be fully fit for the tournament amid fears due to an ongoing hamstring injury.
The 35-year-old was seen receiving treatment on his left leg throughout an exhibition match against Russia's Daniil Medvedev. Djokovic is also set to face Nick Kyrgios in another exhibition contest—three days before the first major of 2023 gets underway—causing a panic among his legions of supporters.
Nine-time champion Djokovic remains the frontrunner to collect a record-extending 10th title in Melbourne later this month. Medvedev—runner-up in each of the last two Australian Opens—is a clear second in the stakes, followed by the likes of Rafael Nadal and Stefanos Tsitsipas after top seed Carlos Alcaraz withdrew due to injury.
