Novak Djokovic goes for Wimbledon without thinking about the Olympics: "I’m not worried about getting injured again, otherwise I wouldn’t be here."

Novak Djokovic got through the second round of Wimbledon on Thursday with some difficulty against local player Jacob Fearnley, who was invited to the tournament. After a tight match, the Serbian admitted that his knee, which he was still recovering from after his injury at Roland Garros, “does not hurt” and that he has arrived in London “without fear” of getting injured despite the proximity of the Olympic Games.

“I’m not where I want to be yet, I’m a little late on some balls that I normally don’t hit, but I haven’t felt any pain. I think everything will come through playing matches, my knee is responding very well,” she said before speaking clearly about her goal for Wimbledon.

“The longer I can stay in the tournament, the more my movement will improve. I’m not worried about getting injured again, otherwise I wouldn’t be here. I don’t have time or energy to think about it. I hope to raise my level in the next matches,” she said.

It is worth remembering that Novak Djokovic has never managed to win an Olympic medal, a prize that is missing from his crowded trophy cabinet to surpass Rafa Nadal, who has two golds under his belt.
