Tennis: “I plan to play in Rome,” assures Djokovic

After skipping the Madrid tournament, world number one Novak Djokovic assured Monday that his objective was to compete in the Masters 1000 in Rome (May 6-15) before defending his title at Roland-Garros.

“Unfortunately I won't be able to play in Madrid this year. (...) I plan to play in Rome, so I hope I can play, preparing well,” declared the Serbian during a press conference on the sidelines of the Laureus sports awards ceremony in the Spanish capital, where he was elected sportsman of the year.

“This year has been a little different for me, I have not yet found my best level of tennis and I hope I will do so at Roland-Garros” he added.

At 36, the winner of 24 Grand Slam titles says he is “preparing his body” to be ready “especially for Roland-Garros, Wimbledon, the Olympic Games and the US Open, the most important part of the season for me ".

Djokovic appeared in physical difficulty last week in Monte-Carlo, where he was eliminated in the semi-final by the Norwegian Casper Ruud.
