Again Jannik will have to take the 'scenic route', his level dropped considerably! good stuff from Struff in the TB

Good win for Tommy Paul into the SFs at Queens 63 57 64 over Jack Draper
Winning the title would make him avoid the Top 4 seeds at Wimbledon before the QFs

Struff has this one I reckon

[MargaretMcAleer]

What's the latest on Novak's recovery? I saw his IG post where he was moving fantastically .. I never thought his knee injury was season ending and he could come back in a few weeks. Those cooler British temps is gonna slow him down a step or two. IMO

Fs Struff. Nothing against Sinner, I just like Struff!

Though he will play for the Olympics which has been confirmed

The last thing I heard, Novak made the Olympic Team! That doesn't mean much, but I'm sure it's his goal & last chance to match Nadal's OGM!

thanks as I saw in the video with his strength and conditioning coach, he appears to be able to complete the exercising drills with ease. All of Us including non athletes know very well, the weeks after surgery, the knee gets stiffer as inflammation and arthritis like symptoms usually prevail. I seriously doubt if he plays Wimbledon or the Paris Games

These days with a complete knee surgery eg knee replacement surgery, we get the patient up the day after the surgery is performed, before we waited for a few days before getting a patient out of bed, reason being it is better for overall circulation and also the patient responds better than waiting for a few days, then most patients go to a rehab facility for their new knee
Novak's surgery for a small meniscus tear in his knee, only needed key hole surgery , arthroscopic surgery, which only requires day surgery, patients go home on crutches.
We will have to wait to see further news from Novak, his main priority was to play at the Olympic games
