To be fair to Djokovic, it's hard to believe that he had a knee operation about 2 weeks before Wimbledon and was concentrating on getting fit for the Olympics - and only decided to play at Wimbledon when the draw was about to be made - but it's already been said, he was totally outplayed by Alcaraz.

The surgery was four weeks before Wimbledon but yeah. Bloke’s a machine but age and younger talent are catching up now. He’s still got a few more slams in him though I think.

Depends what the "operation" was, can't believe it was anything significant, with him being able to get through a Tennis knock about let alone a major tournament.

It was keyhole. He pulled out of Roland Garros at the quarter finals stage due to a knee injury and had surgery the following week.

I'm not trying to make light of his issue, but media make it sound like it was a super human effort, when in reality it may have been very minor.
