Djokovic takes wildcard in Geneva before French Open

Novak Djokovic will participate in the ATP 250 Geneva Open, starting on May 19. This decision comes after his recent loss in Rome. During that match, Djokovic was hit on the head by a falling water bottle. Concerned about potential ongoing effects from the incident, he underwent medical tests in Belgrade. Although Djokovic typically prioritizes higher-level events at this stage of his career, the early and disappointing exit in Rome has incited his desire to spend more time on the court. This extra practice will aid him in defending his French Open title at Roland Garros. The Athletic has reached out to his team for comments.
