After the injury to his left thigh suffered during the 2025 Australian Open, it was reasonable to expect Novak Djokovic to be out for a longer time. The former world No. 1 – who had defeated Carlos Alcaraz in the quarter-finals at Melbourne Park before retiring against Alexander Zverev in the semi-finals – was back in action already in Doha this week.

Novak Djokovic crashed out of the Qatar Open in the first round earlier this week and was seen limping through Doha Airport.

Novak Djokovic has raised fresh concerns over his fitness by limping into Doha Airport. The 24-time Grand Slam champion has struggled with injuries over the past year and crashed out of the Qatar Open in the first round earlier this week.

Novak Djokovic lost the first round of the Qatar Open 2025. Now a viral video captures the Serbian limping his way to the airport.

The video comes just days after the Serb claimed that he 'did not feel any pain' during his loss to Matteo Berrettini
