# Novak Djokovic Withdraws from Madrid Open Amid Injury Concerns
Novak Djokovic, the renowned tennis champion and three-time Madrid Open victor, has officially announced his withdrawal from this year's tournament. The decision comes after he expressed doubts regarding his physical condition earlier this week.
In his recent interview in Madrid on Thursday evening, Djokovic revealed, "I hope so, I hope so. I'm working towards that. I'm not sure [if I'll play]. I've been struggling a little bit, physically, with an injury, so trying to address that and play as long as I can."
Tournament organisers confirmed his absence, stating, "Novak Djokovic, a three-time #MMOPEN champion, will not be able to participate in this year's tournament. We hope to see you back here as soon as possible so we can enjoy your tennis as we have done so many times in the Caja Magica."
Following his triumph at the Monte Carlo Masters, Djokovc mentioned he would take "two or three days off" before he evaluates with his team on whether to travel to Madrid.
