Djokovic, who underwent surgery on a torn medial meniscus on June 5, eased to a straight-sets win over Holger Rune to reach the last eight to set a quarterfinal with De Minaur.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The Australian believes Djokovic has proven he can bounce back from surgery quickly in the past. \"It's just what Novak does. Yeah, I'm not surprised. I mean, we've seen him do these things in the past, recover and be back like he never left,\" De Minaur was quoted by Eurosport.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"Of course, he's one of those guys that looks after his body, does all the one percenters in the whole world. You can tell with his quick recovery time. It doesn't surprise me.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"There were rumours he was maybe going to miss Wimby or whatever. I knew deep down he was definitely going to be back. Yeah, it doesn't shock me that he's back. Playing some great tennis, looking like he never left,\" he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
From Paris to London, De Minaur has been producing a high level of tennis, as his run follows making the quarterfinals in Roland-Garros for the first time last month. This is the third occasion that De Minaur has reached the last eight of a major, having done so for the first time at the 2020 US Open.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"There were rumours he was maybe going to miss Wimby or whatever. I knew deep down he was definitely going to be back. Yeah, it doesn't shock me that he's back. Playing some great tennis, looking like he never left,\" he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
