Khaberni - The Shanghai Masters tennis tournament witnessed a dramatic incident when the veteran Serbian star Novak Djokovic collapsed on the court.
Djokovic collapsed on the court due to high temperatures during his match against the Spaniard Jaume Munar, before unexpectedly recovering and successfully completing the match, achieving a hard-fought victory.
The players in the tournament were affected by the high temperatures and humidity, which reflected on Djokovic's performance, who required treatment after an injury to his left heel.
Despite his struggles, the Serbian star, ranked fourth globally, managed to secure the match with scores of 6-3, 5-7, and 6-2, ensuring a place in the quarterfinals.
By reaching this round, Djokovic, aged 38, became the oldest player to reach the quarterfinals of a Masters 1000 event, adding another milestone to his impressive record.
The Serbian star has a golden opportunity to return to the podium and clinch his first Masters title since 2023, especially in light of the absence of the Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz due to injury, and the withdrawal of the Italian Yannick Sinner from the third round.
