“Unfortunately, I have been forced to withdraw from the tournament due to a hip injury,” the 25-year-old de Minor, who had reached the Wimbledon quarterfinals for the first time in his career, said on Wednesday. “I woke up in the morning and felt pain. The risk of a more serious injury is too great if I went to the court.”
“It’s no secret that this would be the most important match of my career,” added the Australian with regret.
In the semifinals, Djokovic’s opponent will be the American Taylor Fritz (ATP 12) or Lorenzo Musetti (ATP 25) from Italy. In the second semi-final pair, the Spanish Carlos Alcaras (ATP 3rd) and Daniil Medvedev (ATP 5th) from Russia will play.
Djokovic will play in the semifinals of Wimbledon for the 12th time in his career, but in general, this will be his 49th semifinal in “Grand Slam” tournaments.
The Wimbledon tournament will end on July 14.
Last year, Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz became the winner in men’s singles, but in women’s singles, the Czech Marketa Vondroushova triumphed, but this time she lost in the first round.
